Urban Renewal Coordinator's Office was established as an office building next to LeMoyne Park in 1960. The building was built under provisions of Urban Renewal Project No. Michigan R-21, Inkster, Michigan in May 17, 1960 as part of the Southwest Redevelopment Project. The office building opened in 1961. Land disposition documents and other related documents were held at the Urban Renewal Coordinator's Office.
The Urban Renewal Coordinator's Office was actually the Urban Renewal Department under another name. Allen Park Commission was housed at this location at one point.
At some point in 2010 is when the Urban Renewal Coordinator's Office was repurposed into an Inkster Police Department division. The police department relocated elsewhere leaving this building to become abandoned in 2011.
Today the site has overgrown vegetation covers the grounds. However most of its windows are still in tact and have not been broken from harsh weather ironically. Several doors remain locked. Neighbors complain the building is an eyesore and want it removed. Many neighbors complain that City of Inkster lets abandoned buildings stay around for too long such as this one. Neighbors want it gone.
Urban Renewal Coordinator's Office is located on 4310 Middlebelt Road, Inkster, Michigan, US 48141.
