A winning design was announced today for the former J.L. Hudson Co. department store site.
Davide Marchetti and Erin Pellegrino of Rome, Italy, took first place in the "Redesigning Detroit: A New Vision for an Iconic Site" competition and the $15,000 prize that comes along with it.
The contest was sponsored by Rock Ventures LLC through its Opportunity Detroit campaign.
A team of five architects and planning experts were judges for the competition. They finished judging Friday, and the public voted on the entries on Saturday and Sunday, with cash prizes going to the top three vote-getters.
Quicken Loans founder Dan Gilbert has announced plans to build a residential development on the portion of the former J.L. Hudson department store site on Woodward Avenue immediately north of the Compuware Building.
