The Sterling Apartments are now open and bringing new life to a once vacant building!

This transformation brings 20 modern, naturally affordable homes near the Henry Ford Health campus, providing walkable housing close to jobs, healthcare, and everyday opportunity.

We are restoring this once-idle property, unlocking its full potential to expand housing, reduce blight, and build stronger, more connected neighborhoods.

“Our families should not have to wait for support.

That is why I made it a priority to launch Rx Kids within the first 100 days of this administration. This program provides a $1,500 cash prescription during pregnancy, followed by $500 per month during a baby's first six months of life, giving families real help when it matters most.

This is about meeting families where they are and making sure every child has a strong start.” -Mayor Mary Sheffield #DreamBigRiseHigher
