Singh Development LLC, a nationally ranked U.S. builder and developer that actively develops, builds, and manages real estate throughout Michigan, North Carolina and Virginia, is pleased to announce plans for The Griffin, a mixed-use development in Royal Oak, Mich. The site was purchased through a request for proposal process from the Royal Oak Downtown Development Authority (DDA) after being vacant for years. Thanks to its location in the heart of metropolitan Detroit, residents of The Griffin will have quick access to the downtown areas of Royal Oak, Detroit and Ferndale. Situated at the intersection of Interstate 696 and Woodward Avenue, the complex will provide quick accessibility to local entertainment attractions, shopping centers, nightlife, remarkable dining, fitness and wellness facilities. Avi Grewal, project manager of Singh, made the announcement.
“We are delighted to bring a luxurious, modern mid-rise apartment complex to the Royal Oak community,” said Grewal. “The Griffin will cater to residents living an active, urban lifestyle. The property is designed to enhance the character of each individual’s unique lifestyle. What differentiates this complex from others in the area is not only the variety of amenities, but the quality and life enrichment of each one. From an urban park to a yoga studio to a pet spa, The Griffin offers unique opportunities for wellness and engagement in an apartment community its residents will truly love to call home.”
The Griffin will be an avant-garde complex featuring 245 sophisticated apartment homes above 10,000 square feet of commercial retail space. Additional amenities include a spacious fitness center, oversized courtyard pool, bike repair room, game room, bistro café, business center and a parking garage with ample spaces. The Griffin will offer a variety of studio, one-, two- and three-bedroom apartment homes to suit any lifestyle needs. From young professionals to empty nesters, residents who work from home can enjoy the perks of the café and business center. The Griffin is also suitable for roommates or couples who work in different parts of the metropolitan area, as its prime location provides easy access to major highways and is minutes away from Detroit and other suburbs.
"We are dedicated to providing luxurious real estate properties with high-quality features and amenities,” said Grewal. “The Griffin is no exception and will be located in a prime area which affords many of the amenities of a large metropolis. Our goal for The Griffin is to make it the most luxurious apartment community available in all of metro Detroit. We are excited to offer a place where Royal Oak citizens will experience the finest living in an apartment community designed to help them live life to the fullest every day.”
Known as the “City of Trees,” Royal Oak offers its residents an aesthetically appealing landscape while maintaining a small-town feel, with a truly eclectic, diverse and hip cultural vibe. It’s an area people want to live in because it has a vibrant, fashionable scene full of art, fine dining and late-night venues. A major landmark, The Detroit Zoo, is located across the street.
In addition to The Griffin, Singh currently has three other properties under construction: Park West, a multifamily development in Canton, Mich.; Bolingbrooke, a single-family home development in Novi, Mich.; and Waltonwood Lake Boone, a senior living community in Raleigh, N.C.
