Detroit, MI: The green building, One Kennedy Square, is a new addition to the Campus Martius area of downtown Detroit. Designed by Neumann Smith & Associates, One Kennedy Square is a 10-story office building that is currently home to Visteon Corp and Ernst & Young. The first floor will be home to two restaurants facing Campus Martius Park. Campus Martius was a military training ground in the late 1700s and the area was later identified as the center of Detroit's street grid system by Judge Woodward in the early 1800s. The new design of the Campus Martius park was done by Rundell Ernstberger Associates and construction was completed in November 2004. Other recent buildings around Campus Martius include the Compuware building.
