Residential development at 2354 N. Washtenaw scores permit

A full building permit has been issued for a mixed-use development at 2354 N. Washtenaw. Planned by Hibernian Development, the project site is currently a surface parking lot.

With 360 Design Studio working on the design, 2354 N. Washtenaw Ave will offer 20 residential units and 2,000 square feet of retail space. With a mix of 19 two-bed units and one one-bed apartment, four units will be set aside as affordable. On the ground floor, the retail space will front W. Fullerton Ave, with the residential entry fronting N. Washtenaw Ave. The building will hold 17 car parking spaces in an interior garage, with 38 bike parking spaces also included. 

The building will rise 67 feet, clad in face brick with stone accents and an aluminum cornice. Balconies will occupy the front corners of the building, with subsequent balconies built off the rear facades and overlooking N. Washtenaw Ave. The top floor of the building will setback 10 feet from W. Fullerton Ave, providing balconies to those fifth-floor units. 

With the permit issued, general contractor Wilmot Construction can begin constructing the project and work through completion.
