The Michigan Economic Development Corporation awarded the Detroit Economic Growth Corporation $14.5 million through the Revitalization and Placemaking (RAP) 2.0 program to support multiple projects. From the city:
"The Arthur Murray Building at 16621-16653 E. Warren Ave. has historical significance as the first franchise location of the Arthur Murray Dance Studio, founded in the early 1950s by pioneering female entrepreneur Doris Eaton Travis. The $14.9 million mixed-use development led by developer Emery Matthews will convert the abandoned 25,242 square-foot building into 32 residential apartments with 7,900 square feet of ground-floor retail space. The project will receive $2.128 million in RAP grant funding for redevelopment effort."
