Long time lurker here - - haven't posted much so forgive me if this has been discussed and I missed it.

I've heard rumors and seen renderings about a proposed streetscape improvement plan for Park Ave between I-75 and GCP, but am looking for more details. I doubt this is something that is funded, but my understanding is that the DDA is leading the efforts to develop the plan and identify funding sources.

That part of Park Ave is interesting to me - - just on the fringe of Foxtown, with several great strongholds already in place, but plenty of room for growth and improvement. I do think, however, that a lot of the vacant lots on the west side of Park Ave are Ilitch-owned and are being held for God knows what. Improvements to the streetscape there could end up being a "deal maker" for investors and business owners who are still hesitant to be "loss leaders" for a western expanding entertainment district.

Any information or thoughts would be much appreciated.
