Downtown Grand Rapids is terribly underserved and GR's timid, risk-averse developers have (mostly) sat on the sidelines for the past 6+ years, missing out on the single largest nationwide downtown-condo building boom we've ever seen. Now that the party is coming to a close we finally see GR developers test the waters in a significant way. Unreal.

What Grooters is finally doing looks great, but what a missed opportunity! This should have been built years ago with at least a couple similar-sized projects to follow.
