The Town Apartments is a high-rise apartment building in Downtown Detroit, Michigan standing at 1503–1531 1st Street (the corner of 1st Street and Bagley Avenue).
Description
The residential building stands at 13 floors, 12-above ground and one basement floor, with 218 apartments, to a total height of 59 metres (194 ft).
It was built in 1940, with a mixture of art deco and art moderne architecture styles. It is built from masonry as its primary material.[1]

Other upgrades will include an on-site laundry room, bicycle storage, a community room and fitness center. The building will be renamed Town Residences.
