This would be great if CCS decides to go ahead with it. It could revitalize New Center and fill the lofts south of the Argonaut. I can just imagine living at the currently under-renovation New Amsterdam lofts and walking a block to school at CCS.

This thread title is a bit misleading. Read the article they got rezoning, approval to use tax credits, but they haven't agreed to go through with renovation.

How much SQ. is in the building? That's a rather large building.

Slightly old news. Just new Freep article reporting on the progress.

No kidding. Not only that but they allow you to enlarge it as if it weren't fuzzy enough already!

I believe it is around 75,000 SF. This would double CCS's space.
