The $8.3 million development at the corner of Livernois Avenue and Seven Mile Road in northwest Detroit has a new name, expected completion date and a pair of newly signed tenants.

B. Siegel Detroit — rolled out as the 7.Liv project in February 2018 — is expected to be complete by Aug. 1, said Matt Hessler, the real estate developer heading up the mixed-use project. It consists of 10 apartment units and just shy of 20,000 square feet of retail space.

Detroit Vs Everybody will open its flagship store there in early August, owner Tommey Walker said. Once open, the 1,500-square-foot shop will be the clothing chain's eighth location. It will carry the familiar shirts and hoodies stamped with its signature phrase, as well as new releases.

Walker said the store is expected to open when the development is done in early August. He said he is investing upward of $40,000 into build-out.

"I've always wanted to be in that area," he said. "I remember going down there with my mother. I'm excited to have a brick-and-mortar there now, really proud to play my part."

The clothing retailer will be joined by a nail salon called Lacquered, which is moving into a 1,700-square-foot space in the development.

Hessler said there is still slightly less than 10,000 square feet of retail space available, and it will be divided depending on use. He said he is in talks with other retailers and restaurants, but nothing else has been solidified.

Preleasing for the apartments will start in the next couple of weeks. The units range from 600-square-foot studios to 1,100-square-foot two-bedroom apartments. Pricing is $1.75 per square foot, so monthly rent will range from $1,050 to $1,925. Three of the units will be designated as affordable.

The development is going up in a neighborhood abuzz with new energy. The historic Avenue of Fashion has welcomed many new shops and restaurants in the past few years, while the city of Detroit plans a major overhaul there to make the corridor more conducive to walking and bike riding.

Hessler's development has involved renovating the former B. Siegel department store along Seven Mile and razing two adjacent one-story buildings. The basements of all three buildings are being converted into a 29-space parking garage for tenants and employees. Hessler bought the buildings in 2016 for $438,000.

"I'm a resident of the neighborhood, and it's exciting to contemplate walking up and down Livernois to get the stuff we need," Hessler said.
