  1. I hope its goodbye Burger King, hello Stadium District Tower
  2. https://grandrapidscitymi.iqm2.com/Citizens/Detail_LegiFile.aspx?Frame=&MeetingID=7464&MediaPosition=&ID=21931&CssClass=
  3. I like the modern Lumber/Wood parts while also dislike cheap way out budget clad look. All in all, grateful we are getting a stadium. Can always give it a facelift if this pro soccer business takes off.
  4. I say maybe its a "If you build it they (retail, housing, ect) will come." type thing. The Wests-side neighborhood has plenty of room for developments and mid density apartments to build around the stadium.
  5. I like the idea of outdoor eating, late night food, affordable spot to hit. I just wish its wasn't Adobe. I dont hate Adobe but its never something I have to have. At first thought I was thinking that this was nothing big enough for a large project. Then looking at an aerial it is quite a large parcel in some prime real estate.
  6. I might kick myself down the road for posting this.. Its a small group. If you guys are looking to get passed paywalls check out this site: https://archive.ph/ I know we should support local media but well Mlive isn't that great to me.
  7. Its a stretch I know but the Vegas one had band playing at a venue in the hotel. Plus Richard Branson owning Virgin Records. More of a hopeful wish. I also have not stayed or been to a Hard Rock Café or Hotel since a kid in the 90s.
  8. I'd love that music themed hotel brand to be Virgin Hotels over Hard Rock. I've been to Vegas and Chicago both great!
  9. GR Gold is a second highest level as well correct?
  10. More than Wisconsin/UP Packers transplant fan?
  11. Stopping in EL and Ann Arbor would be great for people going to games and students to those schools who are from metro GR/Detroit. The amount of times I've wanted to catch a concert or game in DET/EL/AH but dont need to spend $200 to spend the night..... (cause I might like to have a few adult beverages at said show /game)
  12. I was expecting Aquinas to jump on this property..
  13. I know its a parking garage but some trees would be great. Was just their this weekend for Hispanic Festival and was a fun event as always (packed). The number one complaint I have when that area has an event is the heat. I seems like its always a scorcher. I has so much more potential but i'll probably be 100 yo when/if its finally finished like the river.
  14. I did the same and I'll add Rosa Parks Circle had Juneteenth celebration going on with bands and bbq. I was a lively Saturday for downtown. Bridge Blast (6th) is a great celebration City built has thrown.
  15. Joe, I was walking around this area this weekend thinking the same thing. This makes that area have a bigger presence with the chunkiness it all. Found myself thinking this was a parking lot a few years ago?!
  16. The old Quality Auto was bulldozed yesterday when I drove by.
  17. I surprised this Whitewater being turned down hasn't got more attention and angry mobs. Seems quiet, and telling friends about it their reactions are either; "I had no idea" or "figured".
  18. I've been to those as well and yeah place is a cool labyrinth! I wonder if is tore down on the far south end or saved. This could be a very cool area/neighborhood that is under utilized atm.
  19. Restore the rapids plan has this changing, bike path, kayak access, park & small band shell I think. Then if I remember I think the old building just south of the clearwater place is going to be apartments soon.
  20. MLive article: They received help from the Grand Rapids Downtown Development Authority, which in 2019 provided the business with $45,000 to help cover Ambiance’s lease.
  21. That too bad but hopefully is has another great life as something else. I got married here and it was exactly what we were looking for. Hannah and Joey were great
