Architectural firm to relocate into historic Midtown museum
The Architects Enterprise is renovating the old Heritage Museum
& Fine Arts Center, located at 110 E. Ferry in Midtown, to become
its new Detroit office.
The president of the firm purchased the building after he stayed at
the Inn on Ferry Street during a visit from Chicago. He fell in love
with the nearby museum, bought it and made plans for the firm to
relocate there after an extensive renovation of the structure is
complete.
The exterior of the building requires heavy renovations, and the
interior will have to be revamped to facilitate architectural offices.
The company was inspired by “the beauty of the building, and wanting to
help with the redevelopment of the city of Detroit,” says Lincoln
Calhoun, senior project manager of the Detroit office.
Construction on the project began in July and they are anticipating the move just after the first of the year.
