He was big on taking advantage of the renaissance zone designation to sell units in his developments. Not that there was anything wrong with that. That is what they were there for.

Yep, he marketed them well and utilized them exactly as intended.

highly doubt that would have much of an impact on tourism, wasnt the critisim/focus more of county DEI team being a resource for companies looking to lure talent to OC and disbanding it to "save money"? Also Holland has their own DEI team. 

As for the project, really a once in a generation opportunity for a major redevelopment that if done on a big scale would bring tourists regardless of the county its primarily in having a DEI resource for businesses. They at least acknowledge the want to embrace the waterfront. I hope they play into the Holland name a bit to create some canals and more dutch architecture.

I've heard Dr. Rolf's BBQ is building a second restaurant (not sure the cuisine) across the street with rooftop dining. Construction on the roof is already visible.

It'll be a Diner with a bar. Breakfast, Lunch, and Dinner searved all day. Just drove by the other day and noticed they had removed the outside lighting and it looked like they were painting the building. 

[Pattmost20]

Targeting a June open date.

Wow that feels like fast progress. Feels like only a week ago it was still a drab grey building? I guess it doesn't take long to paint and a paint job can go a long way

If you were ever around Muskegon before the paper mill closed down in 2009 you will remember that it gave off a very strong unpleasant odor that pervaded the neighborhood.   It's likely what discouraged  much of any  residential development along the lake front in that area previously.

The developers have a really good opportunity to increase the retail/ restaurant offerings in this area. It is smack in the middle of the Lakeside business district and Pere Marquette beach. Can't wait to see more concrete plans come out for this project. It is going to be huge.

This is exciting! Really glad I moved to Muskegon, it's really feeling like GR did in the naughts. Really looking forward to that kayak launch, too. Don't currently see many kayaks in the lake.
