Jackson, MI – The Jackson City Council has approved a $25,000 sale of the Hayes Hotel property to J. Jeffers & Co. for a proposed development.
The Milwaukee-based developer is planning a $27.2 million investment to rehabilitate the 10 story historic building to include 91 apartments, along with event and commercial space on the first two floors.
The Hayes Hotel property is located in the heart of Downtown Jackson. Built in 1926, the building functioned as a hotel until 1975. Consumers Energy used the property for office space until 2003. The City of Jackson took control of the building in 2004.
There is currently no timeline for when construction will start on the new development.
