Reservation list for 1001 Woodward condos growing fast

The top nine floors of the 21-story 1001 Woodward Building will be converted into 72 fully finished luxury condos for purchase.

The developers are taking soft reservations, which means potential buyers will be placed on a priority list to be contacted first when sales begin. “There has been significant interest,” says Jason Braidwood, vice president of asset management for 1001 Woodward.

“These are not lofts,” says Braidwood, “the interiors will be fully finished.” The units will feature floor-to-ceiling windows, a new entrance from Woodward, views of Campus Martius and one parking space in the adjacent parking structure with direct access to the building.

The project did not seek historic designation, therefore the units can be offered for purchase once finished. However, they did take advantage of the Brownfield Tax Credit, Brownfield Tax Increment Financing, Obsolete Property Rehabilitation Designation, Façade Improvement grant, and it has Neighborhood Enterprise Zone status.

The units will range from one- to two-bedrooms available at 900 to 2,200 square feet. Sales are anticipated to start early 2006.
