Model D TV: 55 West

Watch this video, and see why developer Colin Hubbell, who passed away last week, was special.

Hubbell talked with Model D TV producer/director Tom Hendrickson about his 55 West development in Midtown at its grand opening party in 2006. The party was like a who's who in Detroit development, plus a smattering of Wayne State students, CCS types, city officials, and more. More importantly, Hubbell brought people together of all races, politics, ages, backgrounds and classes. He embraced diversity and lived it.
