The redevelopment of the
Durant building is near completion and leasing has already begun for August, 2010. The historical renovation will preserve the architectural features of the building while creating contemporary urban lofts. The project is the result of a partnership and support of the Genesee County Landbank, the C.S. Mott Foundation, Ford Foundation, Community Foundation of Greater Flint, MEDC, MSHDA and Genesee County.
The
Durant Hotel was built in 1920 and quickly became a symbol of Flint’s prominence and success. The landmark building, located at 607 E. Second Ave., will now have over 90 lofts, with commercial tenants on the first floor. The renovation is part of an overall revitalization of downtown Flint and will provide urban-style lofts for the U of M Flint and Mott Community College communities.
