Brush Park Deletions

As we noted back in July of 2013, when the city of Detroit filed for bankruptcy, it listed several city properties that pose an "Imminent and identifiable harm to the public health or safety." That list contained a number of properties within Brush Park that were scheduled to be demolished.

It appears that the city has remained true to its word. The Angela and another unnamed apartment building at the corner of Winder and Beaubiean have already been demolish.

Clean up work has also started on Patterson Terrace. However, it remains to be seen if this is prep work for another demolition or the beginning of a renovation.

The city only owns of one the seven units in Patterson Terrace and it is neither of the units they claimed on their 2013 filing. Almass Downtown Real Estate owns three units and Elana McKinney owns the remaining three. Almass has applied to purchase the city owned unit, but neither Almass nor Mckinney have filed a request to remove the building from the emergency demo list. It will be interesting to see how this all plays out.

Brush Park Hit List

Something that was overlooked within Detroit's bankruptcy filing was an attachment listing all properties that the city owns that pose an "Imminent and identifiable harm to the public health or safety." A few of the properties on the list are located in Brush Park.  The City has identified those properties as being "structurally unsound and in danger of collapse." The City goes on to state that the properties are "scheduled for demolition."

The properties in question are:
203 and 209 Erskine (Patterson Terrace)

229 Edmund Place (The Glover House)

2457 Beaubien Street (The Angela)

 2486 Beaubien Street
