Luxury Hotel and High-End Condos to Elevate Detroit's Skyline in Bedrock's Hudson's ProjectSource: Google Street View

Detroit's skyline is getting a swanky new addition with Bedrock's announcement of a luxury hotel and high-end condos in the reimagined Hudson's Detroit project downtown.

The development, set to occupy all 45 floors of the tower at 1208 Woodward Ave, will introduce Michigan to its second-tallest skyscraper featuring an EDITION hotel and 97 luxury condominiums, currently marred by a little snag - the opening isn't slated until 2027, with Bedrock, the firm founded by Rocket Companies Inc. chairman Dan Gilbert spearheading the project the company revealed but without releasing too many specifics on the classification of the hotel's promised five-star status. "Hudson’s Detroit is synonymous with excellence, style and grit, so it is only fitting that it will be home to legendary and iconic global brands," Gilbert said in a statement obtained by FOX 2 Detroit.

The upscale EDITION hotel is the brand's first venture into the Midwest, and plans are in place for it to feature a range of amenities such as multiple restaurants, bars, a pool, outdoor terrace, a spa, and a significant amount of event space, according to clickondetroit.com.

Above the hotel, the high-rise condos known as The Residences at The Detroit EDITION will offer unmatched views of the Detroit River and the city surroundings, with units boasting one to four bedrooms and interiors designed by the New York City and Toronto-based studio Yabu Pushelberg, which Bedrock says will deliver "a caliber of living that doesn't yet exist in the city of Detroit," this ambitious plan which got a sprinkle of corporate prestige as General Motors announced earlier this week that it will be moving out of its Renaissance Center headquarters into the office portion of the Hudson's Detroit project, marking an end of an era and beginning of a new chapter in the company's history while opening discussions about the RenCen's future redevelopment.

Meanwhile, the Detroit community has also been attuned to the need for affordable and senior housing, a balance in the rising downtown Detroit, Eric Larson, CEO of the Downtown Detroit Partnership, told The Detroit News, yet the arrival of such high-end accommodations and living spaces underscores the city's ability to attract a diverse array of residents and businesses as it continues to undergo a period of significant economic transformation and revitalization.
