PROJECT DESCRIPTION:
112 Edmund Place is a five-story mixed-use retail and residential building along the John R commercial corridor in Detroit’s Brush Park neighborhood. The project sought to bring density, activity, and street-level engagement back to a once-active city corner in a historically rich district experiencing renewed investment.

A horizontal brick-clad podium separates program uses while folding back from the street and stitching together a historic material palette. Reimagined in a contemporary way, the brick base, regular window rhythm, and sculpted massing create continuity with the neighborhood while maintaining a visual connection to the neighboring Lucien Moore House.

The facade balances repetition with moments of relief, pulling inward to create a second-floor terrace and shared outdoor space. A green roof and amenity deck provide solar relief, support stormwater management, and reduce runoff entering the city’s sewer system.
