Ann Arbor Development Plan Moves Forward

ANN ARBOR, MI-The Ann Arbor City Council has approved key elements for a $120-million development project that will reshape the north end of that city’s Downtown.

The council ended nearly two years of research and debate over how to revitalize the 6.4-acre site at Broadway and Maiden Lane by rezoning the parcel to mixed residential and commercial use, and by approving a site plan that includes retail, hotel, office and residential space. They also approved a brownfield plan that makes the site eligible for state funds to assist the cleanup of land contaminated by a previous owner.
