📣 Exciting News for Downtown Alma!

We are thrilled to announce our newest project in the heart of downtown Alma—a historic renovation that will bring nine new housing units and a vibrant commercial space designed to host a yoga studio! 🏠✨

This project is another step forward in revitalizing our community, blending historic charm with modern functionality. We are also pleased to be working with Three Rivers Corporation as the contractor on this exciting development. Their expertise and dedication will be instrumental in bringing this vision to life!

We couldn’t undertake this journey without the incredible support of the Michigan Economic Development Corporation, the City of Alma Michigan - Make It Yours!, and the Gratiot County Brownfield Authority through Greater Gratiot Development, Inc.. Your partnership makes projects like this possible, and we are deeply grateful for your continued commitment to building a stronger, more dynamic downtown Alma. 💙

Stay tuned for updates as we bring this exciting project to life. Together, we’re creating spaces where people can live, work, and thrive!
