Edward Hayes Lighting

*This location is permanently closed. We wish them well on their next adventure!

We love hearing Windsorites buzzing about the on-going revitalization of Ford City – our very own, up-and-coming design district. Owners of the Edward Hayes Lighting Showroom, Tina and Richard Kennedy, chose to open up shop in Ford City after swooning over its industrial architecture and learning of its deep-rooted history. Their showroom is located in the former Long Manufacturing Company Building, a red bricked fortress on the corner of Wyandotte and Albert. The building’s louvered skylights and towering ceilings easily throw you back to 1904, when the Ford Motor Company bought the factory to make some of the first cars in Canada.

After being polished up, the ‘Long Building’ now houses Edward Hayes’ full-service showroom as well as Studio V Interiors, owned by Texan interior designer, Lisa Vardai. With Vardai as designer-in-residence Edward Hayes Lighting offers a symbiosis of exceptional service that allows for in-home consultations and custom orders. According to Tina, “most people come in with no idea of what they want yet, and that’s where we come in. No matter what style of home we’re working with, we see fantastic lighting as the icing on the cake!”

The Kennedy’s found themselves traveling back-and-forth to cities like Montreal for inspiration when designing their showroom – now a space that nods towards an art gallery or museum, displaying timeless pieces as well as what happens to be en vogue. Their enthusiastic commitment to design and aesthetics is what keeps the spirit of Ford City’s history alive for a new generation of Windsorites and Detroiters to enjoy, proving Ford City is the perfect breeding ground for makers and creatives to affordably take risks with their big ideas.

Freya is one of our favourite spots in Detroit and it is also featured in the latest issue of the BCL magazine ~ Who else has been? 🙋🏼‍♀️ We cook, you eat. A food menu? How old-fashioned. At Freya, a multi-course meal, consisting of several small plates is paired meticulously with a corresponding beverage. The only important decision you'll make is what to have from the 'music menu' passed from guest to guest throughout the evening🎶 Perfect for the, "I don't know what I feel like tonight, you choose", person in your life-- as long as you're into Moodyman.  .

~What does 'supporting small business' mean to us?~ Helping hardworking visionaries to achieve their dreams is what we do at BCL. So we're unbelievably grateful that many of our favourite small business owners have become our real estate clients. Amor and Mauricio, owners of Walkerville's Café Amor on Ottawa St., are just the kind of people we love to work with. They do everything it takes to make their dreams a reality — and they always do it with a smile 🤗. Fantastic coffee, a colourful atmosphere and excellent service; it's no wonder they were busting at the seams and needed an upgrade. To secure their new location, we helped them navigate the process of selling properties, and purchasing off-market with non-traditional financing, construction and permitting. Their grit, perseverance, creativity and positive attitudes helped them keep their eyes on the prize throughout the entire process. As a result, we couldn't be happier to see them operating in a location double the size to accommodate their growing number of customers.

We’ve been quieter than usual this last quarter of 2022 as we hunkered down to work on something that has changed the direction of our company’s future. Until we’re able to share the news officially in 2023, we’d like to announce that our print magazine, blog and socials will begin to reflect more of our own projects after six years of documenting what’s been happening out there in the Windsor community. Not to say that we won’t still be sharing our favourite destinations and designs with you, because we definitely still will be. Now, as it happens, many of our favourite, well-designed destinations throughout the county are BCL projects in some way. Connecting people with inspiring properties is what we do best, and we want to keep doing it! From colourful, creative homes to the city’s best cafés, we’ll be pivoting to share stories with you of homes that BCL has designed as well as homes and properties that our clients have developed and reimagined in an inspiring way.  We’ll also be documenting more behind-the-scenes of our staging projects, new BCL flips, and insights into how we believe thoughtfully acquired and developed real estate can make Windsor & Essex a more beautiful place for generations to come. Happy Holidays and cheers to our clients, collaborators, friends and future clients-to-be! 📷 @emmadavidsonphoto . . #BCL #YQG #bordercityliving #realestate #community #houseflippers #design #home #renovation #DIY #holidays #KW #WindsorRealestate

To secure their new location, we helped them navigate the process of selling properties, and purchasing off-market with non-traditional financing, construction and permitting. Their grit, perseverance, creativity and positive attitudes helped them keep their eyes on the prize throughout the entire process. As a result, we couldn't be happier to see them operating in a location double the size to accommodate their growing number of customers.

~What does 'supporting small business' mean to us?~ Helping hardworking visionaries to achieve their dreams is what we do at BCL. So we're unbelievably grateful that many of our favourite small business owners have become our real estate clients. Amor and Mauricio, owners of Walkerville's Café Amor on Ottawa St., are just the kind of people we love to work with. They do everything it takes to make their dreams a reality — and they always do it with a smile 🤗. Fantastic coffee, a colourful atmosphere and excellent service; it's no wonder they were busting at the seams and needed an upgrade.

We’ve been quieter than usual this last quarter of 2022 as we hunkered down to work on something that has changed the direction of our company’s future. Until we’re able to share the news officially in 2023, we’d like to announce that our print magazine, blog and socials will begin to reflect more of our own projects after six years of documenting what’s been happening out there in the Windsor community. Not to say that we won’t still be sharing our favourite destinations and designs with you, because we definitely still will be. Now, as it happens, many of our favourite, well-designed destinations throughout the county are BCL projects in some way. Connecting people with inspiring properties is what we do best, and we want to keep doing it! From colourful, creative homes to the city’s best cafés, we’ll be pivoting to share stories with you of homes that BCL has designed as well as homes and properties that our clients have developed and reimagined in an inspiring way.  We’ll also be documenting more behind-the-scenes of our staging projects, new BCL flips, and insights into how we believe thoughtfully acquired and developed real estate can make Windsor & Essex a more beautiful place for generations to come. Happy Holidays and cheers to our clients, collaborators, friends and future clients-to-be! 📷 @emmadavidsonphoto . . #BCL #YQG #bordercityliving #realestate #community #houseflippers #design #home #renovation #DIY #holidays #KW #WindsorRealestate
