In 2000, the city of Royal Oak re-zoned the area south of downtown, formerly utilized by industrial facilities, to mixed use development thus encouraging the addition of residential and retail to the neighborhood.

 

Station 3 Lofts has been a catalyst in the evolution of this urban neighborhood and has created what is known as the Warehouse District. The Warehouse District will be a unique blend of retail, recreation, and residential space equally close to downtown nightlife and neighborhood amenities like parks and sidewalks with tree-lined streets.

 

Station 3 Lofts' location nestled in a neighborhood on the edge of downtown afford residents with the best Royal Oak has to offer. You can walk to downtown restaurants, cafes, bookstores, and nightlife, and return home to your stylish retreat, leaving the city noise behind.
