Exciting Developments Finally Taking Shape in Novi!
Hey there, Novi residents! If you’ve been wondering what’s been going on in your beloved city, we’ve got some juicy updates for you. The wait is finally over as several long-awaited development projects are are picking up steam and hopefully, many will be opening their doors soon. Let’s dive into some of the highlights from the buzzing city of Novi!
The Sparkling New Tapper’s Jewelry Store
First up, let’s talk about Tapper’s Jewelry Store! Located at the northeast corner of Eight Mile and Haggerty roads, this shiny new store is replacing the old Big Boy that closed its doors a while back. Local fans of bling can soon browse a selection of high-end jewelry, just in time for special occasions!
If you’ve been driving by, you might have noticed signage already up on the building, including at the back that faces Interstate 275. Crews have been putting in hours to get everything ready inside for the grand opening. While the original goal was to open by Valentine’s Day, there’s still some uncertainty about that timeline. We reached out for more details but didn’t hear back yet. Fingers crossed they make it!
New TRU Hotel on the Rise
Next, let’s cast our eyes on the TRU Hotel that’s taking shape at the southeast corner of 13 Mile Road and M-5 Freeway. This four-story marvel is still under construction, but the windows are already in place! Scheduled to open sometime after April 24, this hotel will boast 98 guest rooms. So whether you’re hosting relatives or just looking for a weekend getaway, it sounds like a great option! TRU Hotels have been popping up all over, including spots in Troy and Sterling Heights.
Pure Car Wash Makes a Splash!
Onward to the Novi-Ten shopping center, where there’s a buzz about a new Pure Car Wash in the middle of changing things up! After years of waiting, construction has finally begun, and this car wash promises a drive-thru lane and even 13 vacuum stations for those of you who love a clean ride. Set to open soon, this project was first submitted back in 2018. Sounds like they’re finally hitting the ground running!
Asian Village Development: A Mixed-Use Dream
And let’s not forget the Mixed-Use Asian Village, which is on the horizon! Set to break ground later this spring, this development will feature retail and dining spaces near Grand River along with apartment units in the rear. Excitement is building as the first restaurant, The Dancing Pine Korean Steakhouse, will be joining in on the fun! Get ready for some delicious steak and sushi that locals will surely enjoy.
Residential Options Expanding!
Now, if you’re looking for a new place to live, you’re in luck! The Innova development is making waves with several hundred apartment units under construction along Haggerty, between 12 Mile and 13 Mile roads. This project, developed by Beztak, will offer apartments ranging from cozy studios to spacious units, perfect for all kinds of residents. Some of these apartments might even be ready for move-in during the summer, so keep those eyes peeled!
Bluing the Future with The Bond Development
Last but not least, we have the much-anticipated Bond Development planned for the area off Novi Road, south of Grand River. Originally approved in 2018, this project includes several hundreds of apartment units and some retail space. According to city officials, we could see action starting up as the warmer weather rolls in. That area is set to blossom, and it’ll be exciting to watch the changes unfold!
So, there you have it, Novi! Change is afoot and it looks exciting. Keep an eye out for all these new projects—there’s a lot to look forward to!
