DETROIT, May 2, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Chicago-based international real estate and hospitality investment leader Oxford Capital Group, LLC and local partner Detroit-based Hunter Pasteur, in collaboration with Detroit-based Chickpea Hospitality, announces Hamilton's, a ground floor restaurant for The Godfrey Hotel Detroit, which will open shortly after the hotel's projected opening in summer 2023.
Hamilton's is a vibrant neighborhood tavern focused on providing the community with an approachable, yet refined dining experience. Hamilton's will accommodate 93 guests in its dining room and bar, and 38 on its outdoor terrace on Michigan Avenue, allowing guests to enjoy the modern, urban aesthetic. Hamilton's food and beverage offerings highlight local and seasonal ingredients along with a thoughtful beverage program while staying focused on classic American fare. Hamilton's will serve breakfast, lunch, and dinner daily in a bustling, inviting environment.
"Corktown is already a popular destination for food and drink in Downtown Detroit. We are excited to add to its offerings by introducing Hamilton's to the neighborhood for guests and locals alike," said Matthew Kalt, senior vice president and principal of Oxford Capital Group, LLC and Oxford Hotels & Resorts, LLC.
"We are honored to be collaborating on this luxury lifestyle project in the historical Corktown neighborhood," shares Samy Eid, co-owner of Chickpea Hospitality Group. "It has been an exciting experience working closely with the Hunter Pasteur and Oxford Capital teams to curate a dining experience for all to enjoy."
"Our development team is excited to partner with the Phoenicia Group at the Godfrey Hotel. The Eid Family has a distinguished track record of success and a well-earned reputation in the restaurant industry as best in class operators," says Seth Herkowitz, chief operating officer of Hunter Pasteur
The 227-room luxury lifestyle hotel will feature the brand's indoor-outdoor I|O Rooftop lounge with expansive views of downtown Detroit and Corktown serving craft cocktails and bites, a 6,000 square foot ballroom that will accommodate events of more than 350 guests, a welcoming hotel lobby bar for guests and locals, and a fitness center. The site is located just a few blocks from the Michigan Central Train Station, which Ford Motor is developing into a new $1B+ campus and will bring more than 5,000 new jobs to Corktown.
Oxford Capital Group and Hunter Pasteur, along with The Forbes Company, are also developing Perennial Corktown, a seven-story apartment community of 188 units that include a combination of studio, 1-bedroom, and 2-bedroom units; Perennial Corktown Townhomes, made up of seven townhouses at 10th and Church Street; and a three-story parking garage at 1501 Church St., adjacent to The Godfrey Hotel; with additional residential phases being finalized.
In addition to the above, Oxford Capital Group's recent projects in downtown Detroit include the December 2021 acquisition of The Westin Book Cadillac Detroit Hotel. The 453-room property is currently undergoing a multimillion-dollar renovation, which includes a comprehensive refresh of the guest rooms, public spaces, meeting rooms, and ballrooms, as well as new tenants in the two ground floor retail spaces including recently signed, Sullivan's Steakhouse, which is set to open in 2023.
Additionally, Hunter Pasteur Homes is developing City Modern, a development located at the intersection of Downtown & Midtown in the heart of Brush Park. City Modern includes Townhomes, Carriage Homes, The Duplettes, Historic Homes, and the Flats (apartments) – creating a total of 410 contemporary residential units. The buildings will be constructed to sustainable standards using high-quality, lasting materials, and the community features The Mews, thoughtfully designed and landscaped pocket parks throughout the development.
