What's UP in DOWNTOWN Ann Arbor

The annual Fall Bus Tour of Ann Arbor proved to be interesting as well as educational. The Women's Council of Realtor's organized the tour and Ed Shaffron provided us the ins and outs of development in the downtown AA area. It is truly surprising how many condos and apartments are planned but Ed was informative as well as entertaining.

Interested in the lot across the street from the Y? Ed gave us the inside scoop that it might have an arts theme to the property in the future. That would be a great addition to our AA west side.

Agree with Ed or not...he stated, "Ann Arbor is 6 square miles surrounded by reality." It is not an easy sell to attract large chains like Crate & Barrel to AA. What are your thoughts about downtown AA development and what about our wonderful Dexter and Chelsea downtown areas? I'd like to see a bus tour of those as well.

Hi Karen, sorry I missed the tour. My daugher had surgery this week. Welcome to activerain. Go join the activerain newbies group and read great posts on getting started.

I miss A2.... lived there for several years before departing for a warmer climate. I think Ann Arbor is a wonderful city - it has most everything a city needs; but not all the bad things because its small.

If I ever moved back to the midwest - I would want to be downtown!

Cheers from DC and GO BLUE!!!!!!

Missy, hope your daughter is better soon! We missed you. It was really great.

Karen
