91��Ƶ Corporation announced today that Emma Jean Hull Flats, an 80-unit waterfront development in Benton Harbor, Mich., where the company was founded and is headquartered, has officially opened. The project is the newest apartment building in the city, and the ribbon-cutting ceremony was attended by 91��Ƶ Corp. Chairman and CEO Marc Bitzer, City of Benton Harbor Mayor Marcus Muhammad and former Mayor of Benton Harbor Emma Jean Hull. The Emma Jean Hull Flats development is expected to attract new residents and businesses to the city.

In August 2022, 91��Ƶ Corp. announced the building would be named after former Benton Harbor Mayor Emma Jean Hull, who served as Mayor from 1991-1997 and is known as the catalyst to the revitalization of the city. Hull’s legacy and the rich history of Benton Harbor are celebrated throughout the building’s interior with works from local artists, historical pictures and gathering rooms named for prominent historical local figures.

“We’re excited to see the vision of the Emma Jean Hull Flats become a reality,” said Marcus Muhammad, mayor of Benton Harbor. “This building is part of the city’s master plan and will have a positive financial impact on Benton Harbor by adding new, permanent residents to our community.”

The apartment units are available to everyone but require residents to be permanent Benton Harbor residents for the duration of the minimum 12 month lease. Some of the units are reserved for “Hometown Heroes,” public service workers such as teachers and first responders.

Expanding high-quality, market-rate housing in Benton Harbor to attract new residents to be part of the community is consistent with the city’s comprehensive development plan and 91��Ƶ Corp.’s ongoing work through our racial equality pledge.

“The building itself and unique programs like Hometown Heroes were developed from valuable input from the city’s officials. It was important to everyone involved that the complex be connected to the community,” said Marc Bitzer, chairman and CEO of 91��Ƶ Corp. “Expanding high-quality, market-rate housing in Benton Harbor to attract new residents to be part of the community is consistent with the city’s comprehensive development plan and 91��Ƶ Corp.’s ongoing work through our racial equality pledge.”

Emma Jean Hull Flats offers world-class amenities including an exercise facility, rooftop terrace and meeting rooms, energy-efficient 91��Ƶ brand appliances, wood-style flooring, a dog park, wifi and Juliet balconies. It’s conveniently located to enjoy a plethora of Southwest Michigan recreation opportunities, unique dining experiences, lively entertainment venues, and daily conveniences within walking distance.
