St. Agnes Lofts is one of Design Build Detroit's most extraordinary adaptive reuse projects — a meticulous restoration of the historic St. Agnes Church, originally built in 1924, transformed into a collection of stunning boutique loft residences in the heart of Midtown Detroit. Few buildings in the city carry the architectural presence, spiritual legacy, and sheer visual drama of a century-old church, and fewer still have been given the care and craftsmanship this one deserves. St. Agnes Lofts is not just a place to live — it is a once-in-a-generation opportunity to call a landmark home.
Every unit at St. Agnes Lofts reflects the extraordinary character of the building it lives in. Soaring ceilings, original architectural details lovingly preserved, and an open loft aesthetic made possible only by the grand scale of the original structure combine with contemporary finishes — quartz countertops, custom glass showers, in-unit washer and dryer, and energy-efficient systems throughout — to create living spaces that are genuinely unlike anything else available in Detroit. The history of this building is not a backdrop. It is the experience.
St. Agnes Lofts sits at the center of Midtown Detroit, one of the city's most vibrant and walkable neighborhoods. Wayne State University, the Detroit Institute of Arts, Henry Ford Hospital, and some of the city's best restaurants, coffee shops, and bars are all within easy walking distance.
The QLine connects residents to downtown Detroit in minutes, while the surrounding streets offer the kind of authentic neighborhood energy that makes Midtown one of the most sought-after addresses in the city. To live at St. Agnes Lofts is to live at the intersection of Detroit's rich past and its extraordinary future.
