Squint Shot 032911

After being out of town for nine days, one of my first stops when I came into the downtown area was to see how the corner lot looked after the demolition of the house and office -- pictures of which we've been looking at over the last week or so. I took these three pictures on January 1, 2011. What a difference from when I saw it last. The first picture was taken on the south side of East Grand River, about where the Chase Bank parking lot is. This second picture was taken from the west side of the lot on North Second Street. And, this last picture was taken from the parking lot behind Save-On. Future plans for this lot include a few more parking spaces for State Farm Insurance as well as some landscaping to create a park-like atmosphere. The John Gilluly rock and plaque will continue to stand guard at the very edge of the sidewalk at the corner.
