Detroit City Apartments is a high-rise in downtown Detroit, Michigan. Completed in 1981 as Trolley Plaza, after the adjacent Washington Boulevard Trolley, the residential building stands 29 stories tall. The building is located at 1431 Washington Boulevard and occupies the block bordered by Clifford Street, Grand River Avenue and Washington Boulevard. In 2009, Village Green purchased the building and changed the name of the high-rise apartments to Washington Square. In 2013, Washington Square became the Detroit City Apartments.^[1]

The property consists of a 5-floor parking structure topped by 24 floors of residential apartments. The 6th floor, which extends out of the parking structure, includes the lobby, swimming pool, health club, dog park, and other amenities. Two-story, townhouse-style penthouse suites fill the 28th and 29th floors.
