Large Farmington Hills Mixed-Use Project Up for Approval

FARMINGTON HILLS, MI-The City Council will decide the fate of an 89-acre property at 14 Mile Road and Orchard Lake Roads, where developers hope to build shops, offices and restaurants.

FARMINGTON HILLS, MI-The City Council in this suburb west of Detroit will decide on site plan approval for a $150-million mixed-use retail project next week. The plan calls for an 89-acre parcel to be transformed into 600,000 sf of stores, restaurants, service shops and maybe even a boutique hotel.

The community has a choice of two plans. “They’re basically the same, except one has a little less commercial development, resulting in five acres of residential added on,” says city planner Ed Gardner.

The property is located north of 14 Mile Road and east of Orchard Lake Road. Most of the 140 residents that live in the area have agreed to sell their homes to local developers Grand Sakwa Properties and Phoenix Land Development Corp.
