Lafayette Greens

Growing Lafayette Greens

Work has commenced on Lafayette Greens.  The community garden, located at the site of the the demolished Lafayette building, is one of two gardens announced by Compuware back in March.

Nothing Growing at Compuware Gardens

Back in March of this year, Compuware's art and community program manager announced Compuware's urban gardening project. Community gardens will be established on the former sites of the Lafayette and Hudson buildings. Compuware employees will plant and tend these gardens with the produce harvested from the space going to local non-profits, such as Gleaners. Thus far, there are no visible signs of any development on either of these sites which are set to open in July.

Detroit 2.0: Hudson, Lafayette Building sites to be Community Gardens

Compuware employees will tend community gardens on the sites of the Hudson building (Premier Garage) and the Lafayette Building. What a great use for an underground parking structure that was constructed to support a 15 story structure above it.  There is dumb and then there is Detroit dumb!
