DETROIT-The Detroit Lions will soon be getting a new neighbor. The Lions say Etkin Equities will build a $40-million office building and parking deck adjacent to Ford Field in Detroit.

The five-story, 115,000-sf office development will be the home of 400 PriceWaterhouseCoopers employees and other tenants, according to Tom Lewand, Lions chief operating officer. In addition, an upscale hotel offering 130 to 200 rooms is in the works for the former Hudson’s warehouse attached to Ford Field, Lewand adds. “We’d like to get both projects completed in time for the 2006 Super Bowl” at Ford Field,” Lewand says.

Construction on the office building and parking deck will start in the fall and be completed by late 2005. The building is being designed by Rossetti Architects in Southfield, which also designed Ford Field, the $500-million, 60,000-seat complex the Lions moved into in 2002.
