A snapshot of the project, location, size, discipline, and status.

Shop Dog is a century-old machine shop reimagined as an incubator for hospitality, connection, creativity, and our work. This is where HANKDAVID is anchored.

Built in 1922 as a machine shop manufacturing crankshafts, the fully renovated space now serves as our headquarters and creative outpost. The building retains its distinctive barrel-shaped roof and industrial bones, exposed brick, high ceilings, and steel windows, while housing the studio where we envision, ideate, and develop our hospitality concepts.

We are proud to be the current stewards of this historically rich and textured piece of Detroit.
