there was also supposed to be a Cityflats hotel in the village behind ace/borders. same thing...recession killed it.

Also of interest, there are many development parcels along Mack Ave. on the Detroit side of the Grosse Pte. borders... what with the demise of several of the auto dealerships on the Detroit side.

Also, there is the largest undeveloped parcel in the Pointes at the SW corner of Mack and Moross kitty corner from the St. John complex and their Pointe Plaza indoor shopping plaza. This parcel [[former Sears outlet store and other stores + 8 residential parcels since vacated) is a big question mark as to what is planned in that multi-acre major crossroads. The land is owned by Grosse Pointe Farms, which seems not too keen on development, but could likely be larger than local residents would like. They might also be waiting for more existing store leases to expire possibly to expand their footprint.

Another large undeveloped [[razed) parcel is a Grosse Pointe Park site along Jefferson at the Detroit border.
Just got a flyer in the mail announcing an la fitness coming soon to the corner of Mack and moross...
