Garden Court Condominiums (originallyGarden Court Apartments) is a condominium building located at 2900 East Jefferson Avenue inDetroit,Michigan. It was listed on theNational Register of Historic Places in 1985.[1]
The Garden Court Apartments is an H-shaped building standing nine stories tall with a symmetrical façade facing Jefferson Avenue.[2] The lowest two stories are faced with limestone, while the remainder of the building is made from red brick. Two rounded bay window units rise the full nine stories.[2] The top story has limestone belt courses and window surrounds, and a balustrade runs along the edge of the flat roof.[2]
The Garden Court Apartments were constructed for J. Harrington Walker (ofHiram Walker & Sons) in 1915.[2] Walker lived across the street from the Garden Court; when the building was completed, he moved into the top floor of the south tower (now units C8, D800, and D801).[2]
The building originally housed 32 very large luxury apartments.[2] In 2008, the Garden Court Apartments have been converted to a condominium, with 65 one- two- and three-bedroom units.[3]
