Historic Globe Building Gets $2 Million Tax Credit For Redevelopment Plan

Riverfront Will Get New Apartments, Redevelopment For Historic Buildings

Efforts to bring new life to Detroit's historic but derelict Globe Building on the east riverfront got fresh hope today with tentative approval of a $2 million tax credit and development plan.

The Detroit Brownfield Redevelopment Authority voted this afternoon to begin the process of approving a plan put forward by Detroit-based Roxbury Group, a real estate development firm. The plan calls for Roxbury to receive a state-approved $2-million credit against the Michigan Business Tax as part of a $12.5-million renovation plan.
