The new $150 million, nine-story, 234,000-square-foot Little Caesars world headquarters is more than double the size of the company\u2019s actual campus in Detroit\u2019s Fox Office Center. Construction is scheduled for completion in 2018.<\/p>\n<p>Brinker-Christman and architecture firm <a href=\"https:\/\/www.smithgroupjjr.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">SmithGroupJJR<\/a>, both Detroit-based companies, are leading the project. This is Motor City\u2019s first office building constructed from scratch in the past 10 years and only the seventh since 1950. The project made headlines this summer with its original, 14 <a href=\"https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/little-caesars-reveals-updated-detroit-hq-designs\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">pizza slice-shaped windows<\/a> which will be covering the tower\u2019s fa\u00e7ade. &#8220;This remarkable building, with its one-of-a-kind architecture, will be a shining example of what&#8217;s possible in our city,&#8221; Christopher Ilitch, president &amp; CEO of Ilitch Holdings Inc., said in a prepared statement.<\/p>\n<p>The fa\u00e7ade is not the only pizza-inspired element of the new building. Little Caesars\u2019 headquarters wouldn\u2019t be complete without a glass-covered, open air terrace and a &#8220;pizza garden&#8221; with vegetables and herbs. Guests might ravel on the two-story lobby connected to a Welcome Center, while employees will benefit from a screening room, 425-seat training room and a fitness center. The structure will also include state-of-the-art facilities for the instruction of franchises, crew and employees, innovative kitchens, but also retail and dining options.<\/p>\n<p>The modern Little Caesars headquarters is part of District Detroit, a revival initiative in the city, comprising 50 blocks of prosperous businesses and entertainment projects, including the Little Caesars Arena. Michael and Marian Ilitch founded Little Caesars in 1959 and grew the company from a single storefront into the world\u2019s largest carryout pizza chain.<\/p>\n<p><em>Image courtesy of Little Caesars Global Resource.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The state-of-the-art property is the city\u2019s first newly constructed corporate office building in more than a decade. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":236,"featured_media":1004152074,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1495,21782,13,21742,21747],"tags":[35811,47354,34409],"class_list":["post-1004152070","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-detroit","category-development","category-midwest","category-latest","category-office","tag-little-caesars","tag-little-caesars-arena","tag-smithgroupjjr"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v23.4 (Yoast SEO v24.6) -
