The Villiage of Okemos

Okemos, MI

Meridian Township has approved a massive development proposal in Okemos, designated The Village of Okemos. The development hopes to create a place for people to gather as a community, providing entertainment and a unique shopping area. It is expected to create 100 new jobs and will include about 200 apartments and 50,000 square feet of retail space.

The area is bordered by Ardmore Avenue and Okemos Road to the east and west and by Methodist and Clinton streets to the north and south. The site includes seven buildings totaling nearly 280,000 square feet. Most of the buildings will be four stories tall. Some will have a fifth story.

A $20 million brownfield plan is anticipated for environmental remediation of the residual contaminants from the previous dry cleaner and gas station on site.
