@downtowngrinc: Alright, folks — this is YOUR chance to have a say in the future of Downtown! 👀 We’ve been out and about at events around town gathering feedback, and we’ll be at Return to the River too. Now, as we build out our plan for the next 10 years, we want to hear from YOU. What’s working? What’s missing? What would make Downtown even better? Tell us — we’re listening. And because sharing your thoughts deserves a little something extra: everyone who fills out the survey will be entered into a raffle for a $25 gift card! 🎉 👉 corepriorities.org Let’s make the next 10 count!

Trains. We need trains. We need a way to get people downtown quickly without their cars. Start with elevated trains that go up and down 131, and east west on 196.

A strictly shopping area. You go to many cities small and big such as Chicago, Detroit, Traverse City, Holland and there’s a whole strip of stores for shopping the you can walk. Had a business downtown and so many people from out of GR would ask where’s the shopping district here? Monroe Center has potential but it’s pretty dead. Division is too sketchy and chaotic. Has some vintages stores but everything is spread out. Might as well just go to the malls to shop because there’s nothing down here

Something to actually do along the damn river. Why isn’t there a lively riverwalk area with bars, restaurants, Game areas, etc? Would love the ability to sit along the river and have a dinner.

I would love to do more things in downtown Grand Rapids, but the parking situation is horrendous and so expensive!

If the restaurants want more traffic, they should go back to validating parking.

hear me out: demolish 131 between like, m6 and 196, and replace it with green space and businesses and a rail line

We need a grocery store downtown imo. Bridge street market is nice but not what I’d consider downtown. I know the co-op is working on a brick and mortar store but we need something in addition

How about limiting apartment buildings that call themselves ‘luxury’? How about making it affordable to live and buy in GR?

You’re right :
A return to mass community events like the Rob Bliss events such as Zombie Walk, Lanterns Event, etc. Maybe not the same exact events but something that gets the community together for an event that will be remembered forever.
