Old factory in Grand Rapids could see hundreds of apartments - Westport News

GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. (AP) — An old furniture factory in Grand Rapids could become the home of 750 apartments, and many of them would be small “micro units.”

Developers of the Sligh Furniture building hope to appear before the Grand Rapids Planning Commission in the months ahead.

More than 440 apartments would be “micro units” covering 475 square feet (44 square meters), according to documents presented to a board that reviews economic development in the neighborhood. The project is led by Detroit-based Sturgeon Bay Partners, MLive.com reported.

“It sounds like the developer is open to a lot of ideas, and he’s willing to come back and meet with our group once his plans are finalized,” said Kurt Reppart, a city commissioner. “I was encouraged with their willingness to stay engaged throughout the development of the project.”

Synia Jordan, a neighborhood resident and salon owner, wondered if the apartments would be affordable to area residents. Developer John Gibbs said rental rates haven't been determined yet.

“These questions need to be answered up front," Jordan said.
