Yes, a positive development! We're gonna have to swallow another credit union to get six whole residences, I guess. The country club is a waste of land close to several neighborhood centers, and while I support natural green areas around and outside the city, anything adjacent to a bus line and neighborhood shopping zone should be developed with more multifamily housing. Six more short golf holes for "training" is perhaps the worst use of land I can imagine, other than a parking lot.
But billionaires will do billionaire-ing.
I'm trying to hold on to the knowledge that many golf courses are going under and being redeveloped as something other than lawnspace in much of the rest of the country.
I nominate the block occupied by the strip mall and the Comerica branch to be torn down for a four plus one stick-built 100+ unit apartment building. This node needs density.
Sadly, I'm resigning myself to Kazoo being a large parking lot with occasional niceties---much like that recent Portage City center development noted above.
