In 1883, the school moved to a three-story brick building at the corner of Cass Avenue and Stimson Place.

In 1914, the Albert Kahn-designed "Eastern Liggett" branch, on Burns Avenue at Charlevoix, was built and soon fully occupied.

There it remained until 1928, when, with the help of Henry and Edsel Ford and many other Detroiters, the school relocated to Cook Road, then the eastern limits of Grosse Pointe.

A year later, classes opened in an English-style building located at Fisher Road and Grosse Pointe Boulevard.

University Liggett Schools students produce films and workshops made throughout the year, and the performing arts department launches two major theatrical productions annually: a drama each fall and a musical each winter.

[10] Dr. Phillip Moss, a highly respected director and actor, is currently the chair of the creative and performing arts department of the school.

Notable performances have included a 2011-2012 production of Chicago that was sent to national festival where many actors and crew received excellent and superior ratings.
