Long awaited development of residential and retail project becoming a reality

La Joya Gardens Preps for Start of Construction

Cinnaire Solutions and the Southwest Detroit Business Association (SDBA) expect to secure the necessary financing and approvals from the City of Detroit to build La Joya Gardens – an approx. $24 million, mixed-income, mixed-use project on W. Vernor at Hubbard (just east of Clark Park). The development team came together in early 2018. Planning for the project included a 6-month “participatory design” phase in which more than 200 local stakeholders met with the architects in a series of meetings and focus groups. Residents and local businesses voiced their suggestions and voted on the building’s design elements, types of businesses, community services they would like to see, and participated in a contest to name the development.

Residents and passers-by may have already noticed the temporary fencing that recently was installed around the site. This is in place to protect the warming blankets on the ground that will help prevent the ground from freezing and allow for excavation work to begin soon. O’Brien Construction is the general contractor on the project.

When completed in approximately 18 months, La Joya Gardens will feature:

  • 53 residential units
  • Total units, 42 affordable (between 30-80% AMI) and 11 market rate
  • 6,013 square feet

Area for three retail spaces on the ground floor

Project Partners:

  • Development team: Cinnaire Solutions and Southwest Detroit Business Association
  • Architecture firm: SITIO
  • Community outreach support: 511 Design

Major Funders:

  • Michigan State Housing Development Authority (MSHDA)
  • City of Detroit Affordable Housing Leverage Fund
  • Invest Detroit Strategic Neighborhood Fund

See the construction notification flyers in English and Spanish below. For more information, contact SDBA Real Estate Advocate Greg Mangan at 313-283-6533 or at gregm@southwestdetroit.com

El deseado proyecto de desarrollo residencial y comercial se está volviendo realidad

La construcción del proyecto La Joya Gardens pronto va a dar inicio.

Cinnaire Solutions y la Southwest Detroit Business Association (SDBA) han obtenido el financiamiento y los permisos necesarios de la ciudad de Detroit para llevar a cabo la construcción de La Joya Gardens, que es un proyecto comunitario con un costo de aproximadamente $24 millones, con una visión de desarrollo de uso mixto y de ingresos mixtos, que se construirá entre la calle W. Vernor y Hubbard (al este de Clark Park). El equipo de desarrollo se reunió a principios de 2018. La planificación del proyecto incluyó una fase de “diseño participativo” de 6 meses en la que más de 200 interesados locales se reunieron con los arquitectos en una serie de grupos focales. Los residentes y los negocios locales expresaron sugerencias y votaron sobre diferentes elementos de diseño del edificio, los tipos de negocios, los servicios comunitarios que les gustaría ver y participaron en un concurso para nombrar el proyecto.

Es posible que residentes y peatones ya hayan notado la cerca temporal que se instaló recientemente alrededor del sitio, la cual fue colocada para proteger las mantas térmicas del suelo, que ayudarán a evitar que la tierra se congele y permitirán que el trabajo de excavación comience pronto. O’Brien Construction es el contratista general del proyecto.

Cuando esté terminado en aproximadamente 18 meses, La Joya Gardens contará con:

  • 53 unidades residenciales
  • De las cuales 42, tendrán un precio asequible (para inquilinos con un ingreso promedio AMI de 30-80%) y 11 a precio regular de mercado.
  • 6,013 pies cuadrados

Será el área para tres locales comerciales en la planta baja

Socios del proyecto:

  • Equipo de desarrollo: Cinnaire Solutions y Southwest Detroit Business Association
  • Estudio de arquitectura: SITIO
  • Apoyo a la comunidad: Diseño 511

Principales financiadores:

  • Autoridad de Desarrollo de Vivienda del Estado de Michigan (MSHDA)
  • Fondo de Apalancamiento de Vivienda Asequible de la Ciudad de Detroit
  • Invest Detroit Strategic Neighborhood Fund
