Originally posted 10/23/2009: This duplex is quite the project. I do not envy the contractors working on this one. Our client asked us to do a walkthrough before he bought it to let him know what we thought. Upon walking in, we turned right around and left. We said no way. The smell. The stained walls. I think we probably got some sort of disease from breathing the air. You get the picture…

Anyways, I stopped by the other day and was pleased to see that they have [...]

Update: That was a quick one. All done!

At the northeast corner of Leonard and Quarry NW in Grand Rapids you’ll find one of the city’s first fire stations–Engine House No. 9. Of course, it wasn’t the first.

It was designed by architect W.G. Robinson (who also designed No. 7 on Madison). C.H. Pelton and Co. constructed the building, which cost $7,200 (about $138,420 in 2009 dollars). Construction was wrapped and the engine house opened for operation in 1891 [...]

From outside, you’d swear it’s a commercial property. However, once inside, there are three very efficiently laid out apartments with many new features. It’s getting a lot more work too, so it should be a very nice home for three different parties (no, not that type of party)
Update: She’s all done and looking [...]

I’m still trying to figure out the addresses to all the units, but I do know that there are a one bedroom and a 2 bedroom apartment downstairs, and a one bedroom and a 1.5 bedroom (small walk-through bedroom is the half) apartment. Cool place, right by Union Square condos, the highway, and [...]
