I wonder how out-of-date the bing maps streetview is? They are showing old homes at 319 and 323 North Main, and I don't recall being just by a few months ago there being any vacant sites, here. Though, admittedly, I've only ever really driven by this part and not really paid too much attention.
Anyway, this seems like a natural progression up Main. You don't exactly need high-rises, here, but mid-rises do seem appropriate and needed. |
The lot was demoed in 2015 and site prep for a Bath House (? lol) soon followed. Plans for the Bath House fell through and the site continued to sit vacantly until the developer (I believe its the same developer) decided to put something more sustainable there.
Bing maps is quite out of date. 414 Main appears to be still under construction. And that was in 2013/2014... |
Oof. Clunker design on that Main Street project. That composite panel to multi unit buildings is like vinyl siding to McMansions.

Not much news lately...I think I saw a Mlive article saying that they were doing utility work at the site of the future new Amtrak station but construction work isn't actually starting. Oh and I think The Yard, The Hub, and Six11 are close to opening

Wow those are great photos. And soooooo many condensing units on the roof of The Yard!

Yikes, Ann Arbor is booming. Thanks for the pics.

Something big(?):
This isn't anything new apparently, but I just came across it...There's a clinical inpatient tower in the early phases at the UofM Medical Center campus... Some info: -Architect: HOK -Contractor (preconstruction): Barton Malow -Beds: ~264 -Procedural Suites: ~23 ...and it is the U of M so there's a pretty good chance of it happening and possibly in the near future. Keep in mind that this is just a study, no renderings as of yet https://image.mlive.com/home/mlive-m...e0e9a3ffbe.png U of M http://umaec.umich.edu/projects/majo...oject-details/ http://record.umich.edu/articles/u-m...tient-facility MLive article that I completely missed... https://www.mlive.com/news/ann-arbor...tion_of_n.html (pardon my ignorance if this has been posted already somewhere, but its new to me) |

This one has cleared another hurdle. It's probably the project NIMBYs have fought the hardest, which is funny since this isn't really anyone's "backyard." I'm not one to believe that NIMBYs never have a point are or never right about anything. But boy, the opposition to this one is particularly ridiculous.

Central park approval a 'gut punch' for affordable housing in Ann Arbor, mayor says
Lmao the NIMBYS actually pulled through... well it's gonna just keep being stalled because Taylor is still mayor and he's in favor for development so we're just gonna get another 10 years of argument |
The mayor in Ann Arbor is mostly a ceremonial position, and his allies on council were wiped on Tuesday. I'm not exactly sure where this is in the approval process, but if it has to go back before council for anything, it will run into some serious trouble. If folks thought that the city council micro-managed projects to death before, they ain't seen nothing yet.
