Gardenview Estates Home for Rent

Gardenview Estates in Detroit is a public housing community featuring contemporary homes and apartments, tree-lined streets, and a local recreation center. Built by the Detroit Housing Commission over a decade ago, it replaced the former Herman Gardens public housing site and includes market-rate homes. The neighborhood comprises around 600 homes, townhomes, and multifamily units, with a mix of rentals and market-rate options. These modern homes, constructed between 2007 and 2012, typically range from 1,200 to 1,400 square feet and include attached garages and grassy front lawns. The community is characterized by wide, leafy streets, well-maintained sidewalks, and streetlamps. Residents can enjoy the Boys & Girls Club's programming and events, and nearby Stoepel Park offers a playground and open fields. Rouge Park, Detroit's largest urban greenspace, is just 2 miles away, featuring extensive walking paths and woodlands. While Gardenview Estates lacks dining and shopping options within its boundaries, nearby Joy Road and Greenfield Road offer several fast and casual restaurants. For more extensive shopping, Dearborn is less than 4 miles away, with big box stores and grocers like Walmart, Home Depot, and Kroger. The neighborhood is adjacent to Southfield Freeway, providing quick access to Interstate 96, downtown Dearborn in 10 minutes, and downtown Detroit in about 20 minutes. Public transportation is also accessible with several bus stops around the community.
