New Drawings Show Plan for 20-Story Affordable Housing Tower in Ann Arbor
- On June 4, 2025, new renderings were revealed for a 20-story affordable housing tower at 350 S. Fifth Ave in downtown Ann Arbor, adjacent to the Blake Transit Center, developed in partnership by Related Midwest and the local housing authority.
- The project follows over 20 years of planning since the city acquired the former YMCA property in 2003, responding to a 2015 county study calling for 2,800 new affordable housing units by 2035.
- The 228-foot tower, designed by SmithGroup, will contain 330 apartments for households earning 30% to 80% of area median income and feature brick masonry, metal framing, and contemporary windows.
- Construction is projected to start in 2026 and conclude in 2028, accompanied by coordinated enhancements to the streetscape and transit services in collaboration with local development and transportation agencies.
- Funded partly by a 2020 voter-approved affordable housing millage, the development supports the city's goal to create about 1,500 affordable units and suggests ongoing strategies and funding for future projects.
