Some project updates that have popped up in the last month in Ann Arbor

New downtown Ann Arbor development will create housing for artists, homeless

A six-story, 68-unit affordable housing development is coming to downtown Ann Arbor with a focus on housing artists and those exiting homelessness.

The city’s Housing Commission has chosen nonprofit Avalon Housing to co-develop the city-owned site at 121 E. Catherine St., a public parking lot in the Kerrytown district.

Construction is expected to start in 2024 and finish in 2025, bringing 15 studios, 48 one-bedroom apartments and five two-bedroom apartments — all affordably priced for people earning up to 60% of the area median income.
