More housing from a building most people were convinced the city would see razed.

Recently slated for demolition, the iconic 12-story Professional Plaza tower in Midtown Detroit will find new life as a 75-unit residential apartment and retail building in a $20-million project headed by Detroit-based Roxbury Group.
David DiRita, a principal in Roxbury, said the renovation, to be known as the Plaza, could be ready for residents to move in by late 2016. There will be about 2,000 square feet of retail on the first floor.
Besides saving a prominent example of mid-century modern architecture and a Midtown landmark, the project will add several dozen more apartments to the rapidly redeveloping residential scene in the greater downtown.
"We're very excited," DiRita said this week. "As with all of our projects, we're going to put a heavy emphasis on the retail component and make it an integral part of our project."
The project will include 75 one-, two- and three-bedroom apartments.

Yes it is. What an incredible job they did making this building shine again. We need about a few hundred more of these restorations in greater midtown please! I wonder if there are income restrictions to rent here since these are affordable units.
