The Carlton Lofts
Closed: August 2004

The Carlton development project will convert the Carlton Hotel building into 49 luxury, for-sale condominiums. The eight-story, “U” shaped building located at 2195 John R in historic Brush Park was built in 1923 and designed by Detroit architect Louis Kamper. This project will provide for the redevelopment of the 76,000 square foot building into 23 single-story units and 26 two-story units. Additionally, 4,842 square feet will be used for commercial development. Residents will have on-site parking in a secure fenced lot. The Carlton Lofts are in an area designated as a Neighborhood Enterprise Zone (NEZ), which provides for substantially lower property tax liabilities. The DIF’s financing was completed in partnership with Standard Federal Bank and National City Bank’s CDC.
