619 East University, Ann Arbor.

Anberay was a three-story apartment building designed by University of Michigan architecture professors Albert Rousseau and George McConkey and built in 1923. The structure was U-shaped around a central courtyard, facing the School of Education, and had 23 apartments. The structure was formerly part of Ann Arbor's Individual Historic Properties Historic District.

In January 2007, Chicago developers Galileo Associates announced the intention to purchase Anberay and replace it with a new structure that would be 10 stories tall, including 66 furnished apartments, 2 ground floor retail spaces, and two levels of underground parking. This has spurred a fairly predictable outcry from local preservationists.

Anberay was demolished in mid-2007, with construction of Zaragon Place well underway by the new year.
