A groundbreaking ceremony for South University Village, a $36 million residential and retail development, will be held today at Wayne State University. This project is the first public-private partnership for Wayne State, which has teamed up with Prime Development of Grand Rapids. A five-story building to rise on the site of the old Vernors Ginger Ale plant, now a parking lot, will include housing and retail space. The university also will build a four-story parking structure. If the project is successful, Wayne State hopes to build another housing facility nearby on Canfield Street, the article says.
