First lofts available for purchase in Eastern Market

The old E & B Brewery at the corner of Winder and Orleans in Eastern Market is being converted into approximately 35 residential units.

Built in 1891, the E & B Brewery building stands nine stories tall, the tallest in Eastern Market, offering skyline views of Downtown Detroit. In 1970, the first spaces in the building were converting into residential units for lease and were among the first lofts offered in Detroit. In 1996, the number was increased to 15 units for lease.

Today, Jim Pellerito, president of E & B Brewery Lofts Development, is completing the conversion of the 72,000-square-foot structure. “People love the area, there is lots of demand,” says Pellerito.

The lofts start at $138,000 to $347,628 and range from 940 to 2,165 square feet. “It’s the buyer’s choice to purchase and keep them raw, or plan on finishing them,” says Pellerito.

The two models are expected to be finished by the end of the year, with already six reservations to purchase units.
