GREENSCAPE INC. TO HOUSE HEADQUARTERS IN DOWNTOWN DETROIT
DETROIT- (July 17, 2016)- Greenscape Inc.- the region’s most dedicated manufacturer of energy efficiency products- announced the development of a new 25-story office building to be built in downtown Detroit. This office building will become the location for Greenscape Inc.’s headquarters.
The new building, to cost an estimated $150 million, will be the largest of its kind in the U.S. to be LEED- certified. Architect Weber and Associates, and contractor Rudolph and Sietten plan to have the building completed in less than two years. Production of the building stems from a redevelopment effort to keep major corporations in the central city. To further this effort, The Minneapolis Redevelopment Agency has guaranteed the financing of the building and will be contributing up to $5 million to landscape public areas around the building as well as to improve surrounding streets.
Greenscape Inc. CEO, Bill Mitchell plans to visit the development site monthly to ensure a smooth progression. Mitchell stated, “This building is going to do great things for a city that is often misunderstood. The Greenscape Inc. team couldn’t be more excited to be a part of this redevelopment effort, and we know the final product will be more than we could have asked for.”
Detroit Mayor, Mike Duggan is also very involved in the development of the new building, maintaining contact with both the architects as well as contractors on the job. “Detroit has a very distinct personality to it, and it is very important that this new building fit in with the city’s personality. We as a city are very grateful for the positive changes this new development is sure to bring, and feel this building will be the cornerstone of the downtown revival.”
