Our History

In the mid 1920s, Father John McNichols, of the Jesuit Order, relocated the University of Detroit to the corner of McNichols and Livernois. The residential area adjacent to the University became known as the “University District."

Architectural Quality

Most of our 1400 homes were built in the 1920s and 30s during the “Golden Age of Housing.” Structural integrity, architectural detail, the caliber of workmanship and quality materials are all hallmarks of that era.

Residential Standards

Our Goal: Clean, Healthy and Safe! To that end, Residential Standards Committee has been empowered to to establish, identify, and document best practices for residential standards for the University District.

Safety & Security

The University District is a privately patrolled community. Services are provided by the Radio Patrol and the Subscriber Patrol, along with the Detroit Police Department, Detroit Schools Police, Wayne County Sheriff, and Michigan State Police.
