Gaslight Village: Big Changes Are on the Horizon!

Exciting developments are in store for Gaslight Village, as city leaders unveil plans to enhance walkability, connectivity, and create a vibrant, family-friendly area that encourages exploration.

At the East Grand Rapids Planning Commission meeting on November 12, 2024, the proposed transformation was outlined. Here’s a breakdown of the key elements:

9 total buildings, including: 3 commercial buildings, 1 parking garage, 3 mixed-use buildings (featuring commercial, residential, and parking), 1 residential building, 1 row of townhomes. 

  • The tallest building, a mixed-use development, would stand at 7 stories.
  • A total of 180 residential units (condos, apartments, and townhomes) are planned, with 10% designated as attainable housing.
  • Creation of 583 parking spaces to accommodate residents and visitors.

Opinions on the project vary, but the goal is clear: to transform underutilized spaces into a thriving hub that complements Grand Rapids’ growth. With its charming atmosphere and increased attractions, Gaslight Village is set to shine even brighter in the coming years!
