Thanks for the link to the sculpture site, not only did I find it interesting, but I also found that Project X isn't Daune Faust's vision, but has been in GR since 1974! http://www.sculpturesitesgr.org/sculpture_...id=4&location=1

It's 6:41pm. Does anyone find it weird how there are 50-60 users online and there have only been 2 posts or so since before the 6:00 news? We're not up to our usual pace!

I hear there's an ice rink at Bond and Trowbridge now.... "The Watering Hole" ...is this where we discuss Icon on Bond now? Sorry, couldn't resist!

I might be wrong, but I thought it was going in another outlot by the theatre. There is a grassy empty spot next to On The Border. Too bad that Max and Erma's went out, that would be a great place for some patio seating in the summer. Add a restaurant where Sbarro used to be with a patio and it could be pretty cool. Hopefully, the new owners are working on something!

GR Press article http://www.mlive.com/news/grpress/index.ss...ll=6&thispage=1 Looks like a new building may be in the works...

Thanks for the report. . I really wanted to go, but then some company stopped over. I knew you'd have a great report GrDad...

I agree that the website is horrible. I think creativity is great but can never get in the way of functionality. If I were looking for an architect, I wouldn't use him based on his site. His building may look cool, but you would be able to figure out how to get in it! Maybe the wall has something to do with that.... All kidding aside, I don't like the wall, but that is a huge hill and it looks like the ambulances need to pull out of somewhere for the kids ER. How do you think the design could be better in that whole area..it looks like the buildings across the street will have walls, too. With all the skywalks, it's as if the street has nothing to with the traffic flow of people. (Park in a garage and walk thru corridors) Doesn't get people out into the city well at all. How could this be improved or is it pointless up on the hill?

Sorry, I should have posted it because it's hosted on Spectrum's site. I haven't bothered with posting pictures because I usually don't have any and haven't bothered a server for that. Plus, I had to get work done. Look at me now - back online not getting work done! =)

Check out the Spectrum website...great renderings. Doesn't look as tall as I thought it would be, but I like it! http://spectrum-health.org/?s=11&nid=3FDDD...78684F6600864E9 Now I better actually get some work done...this is exciting, though!

It's been pretty slow around here tonight...80 or so posts to go. Maybe this week! There's my two cents (and one more post!)

Since this is the off-topic place, did anyone notice that we are only 1000 or so posts behind the Detroit forum? Not bad for our town... must be good things happening here!

Now it sounds like the airport is OK with the huge price tag. http://www.mlive.com/news/grpress/index.ss...46880200330.xml or with a picture... http://www.mlive.com/grpress/frontpage/pdfs/Re_Thursday.pdf Loks nice, but still seems REALLY pricey!
