Have we discussed this? I found a bunch of these renderings on boards in the trash at my work.
I'm guessing this plan i had posted in 2018 is it?

Temporary or permanent tiny houses? Is it a development, or an experiment? Do tell!
Joe
Dunno. I know they want to build something large on that land, but they have discussed that for nearly 20 years. 2 years ago, the plan was a huge ferris wheel. Who knows what's the plan now.

The Samaritas Project is really starting to look sharp!! Does anybody happen to know who is behind the renovations on Burton and Eastern? Signs up for a BBQ restaurant, Community Center, Barber shop and a mini mart. Hopefully will give some new energy to that intersection.
I live walking distance to this.. I also saw a coffee shop going in?

I used to work at Plaza, and I still talk to my guys there a lot. Eenhoorn is putting in a series of tiny houses in the parking lot and some in the grass. Apparently very soon.
And they will be occupied. Its not an art installation.

Noticed this on my way in to work this morning.
LED lighting. I think that'll look really sharp all the way around

yeah downtown. it’s called Stella’s. owner has several bar concepts, i’m just a landlord not a bar owner. his place w me is max’s south seas hideaway which is a tiki restaraunt— it is awesome
Ohhh, I thought you meant like a games room kinda place. Yeah, Stella's has arcades, but I wouldn't say its a true barcade. So I'd love to see one. And, like I mentioned before, yardgames.

that's a super cool idea. one of my tenants (Max's south seas hideaway) also has a video arcade bar downtown GR, he's the right guy for the job, I will ask him
What bar is that?? The downtown one?
People live drinking games and yard games. You get a bar with beerpong, beer-die, beersbee, laddergolf, bags, ect. Youre going to do well. Have it outside for the summer if possible, inside for winter with lots of windows and astroturf... make people think they're outside. I think you'll do well.

Fulton/Market.
I think Wheeler is looking to extend their year long deal with the city for the wedge development. I really hope it doesn't get cancelled, we need some height!
Exactly. I also read recently the Grand Rapids area is desperate for housing. I think they still need these apartments and condos to be built. And 24 stories is nothing to sniff at in this town.

Barcaid. Bar with arcade games. Or a bar that specializes in yardgames

So there is a mssive sanitary line running underneath this property (109" I think?) I heard the city is looking to possibly move it under/near Market. I would assume this would be for a development on the property......
Under the Fulton property for this tower, or under the lot at Fulton and market?

New photo. There’s an interesting pattern “etched” into the big windows.
I actually really love this project so far. I wish it were taller (as I do with everything, right) or they redo the 5/3 tower behind it. The north side of downtown is so sterile and needs more life.
-
They are getting ready to place the new facade facing Pearl.
Hope you guys don't mind my pictures. Bit slow lately, trying to inject some life here

A close up of the new crown. I noticed the clouds reflection looks almost pixelated and I thought it was pretty cool.

"As our services and patient population continue to grow, so must our downtown parking capacity. Parking for our patients, visitors and team members continues to be a priority at the Spectrum Health Medical Center. An effective parking strategy contributes to a positive overall patient experience and higher job satisfaction from our team members. To that end, a four-level expansion to Parking Ramp 6 on Barclay Avenue NE near the Spectrum Health Butterworth Hospital emergency department will begin this week. Beginning July 9, Barclay Avenue NE will be closed between Crescent Street NE and Lyon Street NE to allow for the use of a tower crane, which will last until July 17. The Butterworth Hospital emergency department entrance will remain open and available as traffic will be able to turn onto Barclay Avenue NE from Michigan Street NE. "
Four levels and a roof.
Kinda wish they would have added usable space above, but whatever. That is a big upgrade to the ramp

Could be for the parking garage cover if the crane is south of Michigan.
It is exactly in that location. All that for a cover? No air space?

I believe a tower crane is going up near the hospital?
I dont THINK thats from the project already underway? The GVSU project?
20 floors tho
24-Story Tower Proposed for Fulton and Ottawa
in Grand Rapids

Terrific news. I worried this project was dead too. Some height away from the river will be terrific. Especially with the new hotel next door.
