Amazon Fresh Stores Slated for Plymouth and Dearborn Communities
/in SE Michigan /by Tracy WillisPlymouth and Dearborn are slated to be the new homes for two new Amazon Fresh locations in metro Detroit. The stores bring the total number in the region to nine. One is being built in a strip plaza at the corner of Ann Arbor and Haggerty Roads in the Plymouth Towne Center retail development. The other is destined for the former Kroger Co. grocery store space at 23000 Michigan Ave. Construction on the Plymouth location began in the fall and is expected to be finished late spring/early summer of 2023. The two stores are anticipated to open in unison.
Proposed Mixed-Use Development in Roseville Brings Hope and Criticism
/in SE Michigan /by Tracy WillisHawasli Homes is planning a multi-story, mixed-use development on a 1.2-acre vacant site on Utica Road. The site once held the Tip-Top Bar. While unanimously approved by the Roseville City Council on Tuesday, the plan is not without controversy. Neighborhood residents say the 81,000-square-foot building will be too out-of-place in the residential area. They want its height to be capped at two stories. The four-story building will be one of the tallest buildings in Roseville. The first floor of the building will be utilized for commercial purposes like a deli, a UPS store, a studio, etc. The site will include 166 parking sites and studio-sized, one-bedroom and two-bedroom apartments. Critics of the plan worry that the number of parking sites exceeds the city’s requirements and that the project will increase traffic on the two-lane Utica Road. City officials hope the proposed development will transform downtown Roseville into a transit- and pedestrian-friendly location.
Regional Home Sales Decline Despite Interest Rate Drop
/in SE Michigan /by Tracy WillisRegional home sales declined into the double digits in November, but prices remained high. RealComp and RE/MAX of Southeastern Michigan released reports on Tuesday confirming that buyers won’t have any price relief when compared to last year. The two separate reports reveal that the number of home sales in Southeast Michigan dropped by more than 14% from October to November. Even with a considerable interest rate drop, the largest since 2008, consumers aren’t enthusiastic. Many are delaying listing their homes for sale because buyer demand is weakening, and they don’t want to risk their current lower mortgage rates.
