Tireman is a neighborhood being slowly rebuilt. Though this Detroit suburb has a surplus of empty and derelict homes, community members and investors have been hard at work slowly rebuilding the city and its neighborhoods. “It’s exciting because our downtown area is back,” says Veronica Todd, CEO of Veronica Todd Realty. “And it’s changed to where we can host events like the NFL draft, and we can have good restaurants and everything else that comes with that.” Revitalizing the neighborhoods of Detroit will take time, but neighborhoods like Tireman are starting to see improvements.

A mix of homes in a once lively neighborhood
Bungalows, Victorians and ranch-style homes from the early 19th century characterize this historic neighborhood, and the median lot size is around a tenth of an acre. As with many communities across Detroit, Tireman has a significant inventory of vacant homes and barren lots, though investors are carrying out renovation efforts, and the city is working to improve its blighted areas. “It’s an inner-city neighborhood,” says Todd, who has more than 20 years of experience in Detroit real estate. “From the last time I was over there, it needs a lot of work. But the city is building up so much that if you don’t go into an area for six months, you might come back and wonder what happened.” Prices in Tireman range from $6,200 for a boarded-up Queen Anne needing repairs to $410,000 for a fully renovated American foursquare with a second-story porch. The median home price is $45,500, a 42% increase from the previous year.
Renovated homes are becoming more common in Tireman.

Motor City and the Detroit Lions
Ford Field is just seven miles east by way of Interstate 94, so Tireman residents are a short drive away from cheering on the Detroit Lions in person. Harkening to its roots in the automotive industry, the city hosts one of the world’s largest car shows—The International Detroit Auto Show—and a world-class IndyCar race—The Detroit Grand Prix.
Limited options for shopping and dining
Though the Tireman neighborhood is primarily filled with homes and churches, the few locally-owned restaurants in the area earn good reviews on sites like Google Maps. Onasis Coney Island offers Tireman residents chili dogs, cheese fries and other Coney Island fare. For national chains like McDonald’s, residents can head to the intersection of Livernois and Grand River Avenue, which holds a handful of options. Small corner stores like West Warren Food Market offer snacks and drinks on the go, but the closest spot for fresh produce or deli meats is Eastborn Fruit Market on Wyoming Avenue.

Empty lots converted to public parks

Detroit city transit
Sidewalks are plentiful throughout Tireman, so residents have ample space to walk. Detroit Department of Transportation bus stops line Livernois, Tireman Avenue and other roads throughout the neighborhood, giving residents a public transit option to connect to the rest of the city. For residents with a car, Interstates 96 and 94 meet at the eastern apex of Tireman, connecting drivers to the nation’s network of highways.
Chess team, robotics and college credits
