Metropolitan Park Apartments - Construction

Nitro · February 2, 2006

In fairness to Icon, Metropolitan Park doesn't have to go through the paperwork neccessary to stock live crocadiles.

A lenghty DNR governmental process no doubt...................

Really? I would've thought it was the crocodiles' lack of opposable thumbs, neccessary to sign those lengthy purchase agreements, that was holding things up.

Actually, they have been working pretty steadily at the ol' fort.

Whoops, this is

I like it! Nice modern architecture to mix in with all the old brick buildings in GR. Red is my favorite color so I like how they added some color to the building. The best part is its low cost housing.

torgo · February 2, 2006

Looking at it again, I think I would like it a lot more if it had a non-slanted "top" (I think twoshort pointed this out earlier). Right now, it just kind of ends at the 4th floor. There needs to be something above it. It looks like it doesn't have a roof.

Good morning all.

Is the Metro Park apartments just taking the one parcel?

I believe the parcel next to it is GR Loose Leaf Inc...is that business loaction still occupied? I'm guessing it is not part of the Metro Park deal.

Wow, there are very few available parcels left in this area! This will be a cool area soon.

Yes, just the parcel on Ionia JD. There's also the Heartside "Peace Garden" next to Loose Leaf, isn't there?

john_denver · February 3, 2006

Hmm...Peace Garden? Are you speaking of the 3 oddly shaped parcels south of Loose Leaf? They are owned by three different entities but I guess I am not familiar with what is there.

GRDadof3 · February 3, 2006

Yah, I think it's a "community garden" where someone in the area plants vegetables. It's almost at the corner of Commerce and Wealthy. This is the parcel for Metropolitan Park:

I can't seem to find the thread for this, but the new apartment building on Ionia and Goodrich has a lot going on. Two cranes and it looks like they are building a third, plus a huge pile of steel beams. Good to see that project moving along.

Thanks 3dad for finding the thread. I didn't get any photos, I dont have a camera

I'm by there a few times a week, I'll try and take one or two.

GRDadof3 · February 21, 2006

Sorry Mike. I got the itch

twoshort · February 21, 2006

where are you when you take those, on the overpass?

Yessirreebobby!

Rizzo · February 21, 2006

Is that on the Wealthy right before the fencing..?

Nevermind question answered... I love that spot, its my perch view of the city.

GRDadof3 · February 21, 2006

Yes, I've been there before:

Gr must be one of the few cities that really take good care of their brick roads, thats got to be nice for those who live in the area. It (Metro Park) should also make the globe stand out less (Its the only thing you can see in that spot going down 131 really.)

Prankster · February 21, 2006

Sorry Mike. I got the itch

You know, they got cream for that.

GRDadof3 · February 21, 2006

Oh that's right. Did you need yours back?

torgo · February 21, 2006

Gross

you forgot the

Prankster · February 21, 2006

Now, don't go jumping to conclusions. We didn't say "where" the itch was, now did we. Get your minds out of the gutter.

torgo · February 21, 2006

Well, no offense, but I'm not sharing topical anti-itch ointment with ANYBODY.

Ughh...reading this thread during the lunch break was not a good idea...

GaryP · February 21, 2006

Had a chance to get by this site again today. That third crane I referenced is actually some sort of a drill probably for footings.

That is new brick that was put down a few years ago
