  1. This seems like the best odds of this whole discussion. I think the city would work hard to accommodate this kind of thing if developers came to them with it. Doing anything with the rest of the public buildings in that corridor? Can't imagine them doing a thing to entertain that...
  2. Thanks. Knew they were now interconnected, but the relation between the two I couldn't recall...
  3. Is UICA a subsidiary of KCAD now? Wondering how they're part of this...
  4. KFC didn't make it, and Tim Horton's didn't make it... I wouldn't bet on something called Vibe Energy Cafe.
  5. Does anyone realistically think that building will be purchased to replace it with something else? Reskin, maybe...
  6. One of the original titans of self-storage, who died a billionaire from that business, said “I saw a method of holding prime land with income" about that business model. Hopefully the MySpace Storage folks are seeing this as a real estate play and when a deal makes sense that building will see a better use.
  7. I'm wondering when the cost of borrowing becomes an impediment to building more stuff. Thoughts?
  8. huge employment boost for that county... Same reason officials used to lobby to have prisons built in rural counties.
  9. I don't think I've seen anyone this 'official' go on record with this kind of comment. Nearby land. 1500-1700 housing units.
  10. this part was interesting: The current plan calls for a 12,000-seat amphitheater on the site, with as many as 1,500 to 1,700 housing units spread over nearby land, according to Jeremiah Gracia, the city's economic development director.
  11. Granholm Celebrates Cascade Engineering's Commitment to Alternative Energy (michigan.gov)
  12. I've been listening to the zoning/city commission work session with JAG & Cherette on this project, which occurred in August. Really interesting. The mixed use aspect along M45 is lost on the developers, and TOD as a concept is a nonstarter for them too. Seems like that SilverLine stop at Ferndale is a gift to a developer, but these folks don't get it. Gonna be a long slog for the Walker team having to negotiate this through...
  13. https://techcrunch.com/2022/06/01/columbus-ohio-is-quickly-becoming-the-midwests-tech-hub/
  14. Columbus took aim at this niche more than 10 years ago and brought in VC $$$ from Silicon Valley, transplanting some key players who have made a big difference. Not sure Right Place is playing in the same league…
  15. This comes up a couple times a year…. LMCU is privately owned and a cash cow. Until Chamberlain and Baxter decide to retire and sell the club to DP Fox, the ballpark ain’t moving. (and probably not then either)
  16. West side GR site examined for soccer stadium; DeVos acquires adjacent land (mibiz.com)
  17. Is there any chance that the delay on the amphitheater is related to this? Could they combine amphitheater and stadium?
  18. This has DP Fox written all over it.
  19. I ate at the Michigan street location last week and there were only three tables occupied at 8 a.m. Doesn't bode well.
  20. I went to Street View to envision this from the other side, and the current pic has crane lifting the tower crane... for those of you who are into that. ;-)
  21. just saw this today… http://www.gvmc.org/airport-access-study
  22. that's surprisingly close to their Centerpointe location. Seems like they are typically very far apart. Great location for them though.
