I was just in Tokyo a few weeks ago and saw this commercial on TV for Grand Rapids, MI (and cascade engineering). I don't remember what station it was on, sorry. I was gobsmacked, here I am in Japan watching a commercial for Grand Rapids!
In English? On a Japanese station? Wow.

I'm told there's an urban forest wonderland of wooden bridges, tree houses, and even a sailboat-turned-guest house back there. True?
Yes. Two of the buildings are connected by a pretty cool wooden bridge, surrounded by vines. Theres plenty of bamboo to give the "forest effect" (thank my mom).
And yes, there is even a 41 ft boat that is dry docked. He built a deck coming off the boat, so it can be a guest room/hang out.

Alright Wealthy Historians, what can you tell me about this building? I see it still standing back behind the overgrowth at 1026 Wealthy St SE
EDIT: I see it in this picture too, K. Vander Vennen & Sons Paint Shop perhaps? Now you could drive by it 100 times and never notice it....

The wood building to the right (labeled "Paint Shop") is my step dad's house and workshop. He designs and builds wooden signs.

Take down the hideous beer ads. We all know it's a bar, we all know they serve beer. Who really makes a decision based on the the price posted in the window.

Sigh, still no Wisconsin penetration. Although, Marquette MI could really use one.

I say someone here should go into The Wild Bunch and give us a full report.

How can they widen 196? Theres not much from from Fuller to DT. Adding a lane will make 30 ft. verticle walls on either side. Maybe they can open some store fronts on it, haha.

From the article,
Fifty second-year medical students could begin their studies in Grand Rapids by the fall of 2008.And I thought super seniors were bad! (as I read it, fifty-second year students... hah)

Yes, that website is really stupid and irritating. Here are the renderings from that page:
This must be the current design...complete with that lovely wall
How tall is that thing? 30 feet? 40?It looks like the guy walking on the street is about to hit his head on the sky walk.
