Former Royal Music Building Stripped of The Color Purple
The former Royal Music building on Main Street in Royal Oak gets a makeover.
When addressing the Royal Oak Planning Commission in October, architect Brian Howard, of HF Architecture, made one thing clear about new plans for the Royal Music building at 512 N. Main Street.
"FYI, the purple is going," Howard said.
The new owner of the 7,897-square-foot building is John Wangler, a former Shrine High School and University of Michigan football star. He plans to convert the music store into retail sales, offices and multiple-family dwelling units.
