Condos are coming to the Lakefront by yooperprof
These are the new condo townhomes that are being developed near the lower harbor park. Actually, I like the design and the density of these "rowhouses": they are very "urban" and "urbane." In the next few years, many more condominiums will be developed along the lakeshore, close to the downtown area. Many if not most of them will be considerably "upscale." It's bound to affect the character of the community - and some people here are already starting to complain. They don't want to see Marquette become "over-developed" with projects that cater primarily to the wealthy from out-of-town. On the positive side, developments like this one increase the tax base of the community, and the additional disposal income that the condo residents will bring to the area should help local restaurants and businesses. Change is coming, that's certain.
