Encouraging News for Michigan

Three cheers for MichiganEncouraging News for Michigan.

Michigan was ranked # 3 in the Nation for Corporate Expansions.

Site Selection’s annual Governor’s Cup award recognizes the state with the most new or expanded private-sector capital projects as tracked by publisher Conway Data Inc.’s New Plant Database.

Ohio was named #1 and Texas #2

Major new corporate projects for Michigan in 2009 included:

  • Advanced energy storage and solar firms like Xtreme Power
  • Clairvoyant Energy on the site of the former Ford Wixom assembly plant
  • Advanced-battery development and manufacturing firms A123 Systems (Ann Arbor),
  • Johnson Controls-Saft Advanced Power Solutions (Holland)
  • Dow Kokam (Midland)
  • Major expansions by General Motors and Ford for electric and hybrid vehicle production here.

Site Selection also recognized Detroit-Warren-Livonia as the nation’s No. 4 metro area with a population of one million or more for new and expanded corporate facilities.  Among metro areas with a population of between 200,000 and one million, Grand Rapids-Wyoming tied for third; Holland-Grand Haven was fifth; and Ann Arbor and Lansing-East Lansing tied for sixth.

Michigan Economic Development Corp. president and CEO Greg Main said.  “These high rankings reinforce that Michigan is a top-tier location for growing companies because of our aggressive initiatives, strong business climate and hard-working and talented workforce.”

Inventory in Ann Arbor...a 7 Day to 3 Month Comparison

I thought it would be fun to look at a chart showing the difference in inventory in Ann Arbor between the last 7 days vs the last 3 months.

Our market in the Ann Arbor Area, really starts to bring the buyers and sellers out when March rolls around. So we have had a decrease in inventory over the last few months but now it is beginning to pick up.

Enjoy the charts and don't forget to move the bottom around to see different price points during the last few months.

Barton Hills Beauty, 321 Juniper Lane, Ann Arbor,48105

321 Juniper Lane Ann Arbor, MI (Barton Hills)Fabulous home located on 321 Juniper Lane, in Ann Arbor in Barton Hills. Barton Hills is one of the most prestigious neighborhoods in all Ann Arbor.

I love the Charter opening remarks:

"We the residents of Barton Hills Village in order to enjoy to the fullest extent the advantages and benefits
of local self-government as authorized by the Constitution and laws of the State of Michigan, do hereby ordain and establish this Barton Hills Village Charter."

"Wooded hills . . . valleys . . . beautiful water . . . an elevation that
overlooks Ann Arbor and the picturesque Huron River Valley . . .
artistic homes and congenial neighbors . . . privacy without seclusion . . ."

 

. . .so begins a real estate brochure from the early 1930's, proclaiming the virtues of the area now known as Barton Hills.  From the Native Americans who frequented the riverbanks, to the early settlers who described the landscape as striking and appealing, to the current residents who love to come home, Barton Hills Village is a beautiful and unique place.321 Juniper Lane, Ann Arbor (Barton Hills)

History

Since the area that is now Barton Hills Village was too hilly for farming, Detroit Edison retained the prestigious Olmsted Engineering firm of Brookline, Massachusetts to design a residential community of gracious country homes.  True to the Olmsted philosophy of creating harmony between natural and man-made features, the parcels and roadways were arranged with an artistic eye towards using the topography to best advantage. 

Barton Pond view from 321 Juniper Lane Ann ArborHome sites commanded unobstructed views of Barton Pond and the Huron River.  Restrictions attached to each deed stipulate that all homes must be designed by a registered architect and are subject to the approval of an architectural review committee. 

This provision allows the community to maintain its unique ambiance.  While each home has its individual personality, there is a common element of harmony with the natural surroundings that defines the character of Barton Hills.

321 Juniper Lane was built in 1932, it is located on a cul de sac, with year round views of Barton Pond. A babbling brook is behind the 1.79 Ac parcel with lighted walking trails, stone pathways and a Gazebo to relax on summer evenings.Belgiam blue stone patio provides the privacy you desire after a long day at work.321 Juniper Lane, Ann Arbor (Barton Hills)

Enjoy the Virtual Tour
