Orleans Landing

Orleans Landing is a residential project that brings much-needed economic activity to the Detroit Riverfront, a sector of the city that already possesses unique and diverse assets. The project creates exceptional urbanism to complement the existing waterfront, brick industrial buildings, greenways, and historic streets. HAA served as landscape architect for the project as well as architect of record, providing a blend of architecture and site design elements to complement the area and knit the new development into the surrounding district while connecting the Dequindre Cut and waterfront.
