  • Bedrock on Tuesday announced a new plan for the site of the stalled Wayne County Criminal Justice Center complex in downtown Detroit.

Bedrock Detroit has unveiled plans for a new innovation district on the site of the former Wayne County jail complex in Detroit. The project, named "The Innovation District," aims to transform the 40-acre site into a hub for technology, research, and development, featuring office spaces, residential units, retail, and green spaces. The development will include the adaptive reuse of some existing structures while introducing new constructions to foster a collaborative environment for startups, established tech companies, and academic institutions. The initiative is part of a broader effort to revitalize Detroit's urban core, promote economic growth, and attract talent by creating a vibrant, mixed-use community. Bedrock has emphasized sustainability, community engagement, and economic inclusivity in its planning, with the project expected to generate thousands of jobs and significantly contribute to the local economy.
