The house had to go to make space for a new affordable senior housing project called MoTown Square. The result of a partnership between Orion Construction, LINC Up, MoTown Square Development, the housing complex is expected to have 54 assisted living units for those 55 and older.
“This project underscores our commitment to enhancing the quality of life for seniors in Grand Rapids,” Orion President Brad Walsh said in a statement. “MoTown Square will not only provide comfortable housing but also foster a supportive environment that promotes independence and well-being.”
