The downtown Northville store's grand re-opening is Friday.
Mother-daughter team Margaret “Peggy” Stoe and Jennifer "Jenn" Grochowski are excited to re-open trendy decor shop Pear-aphernalia to the Northville community. Grochowski said she and her mother fell in love with the store and were loyal patrons for 10 years. Previous owners Pat Stempien and Lori Finnegan, who ran the store for 12 years, put up a sign saying it was closing more than a month ago. "When we heard they were closing, we came in to thank them," she said. "Then we saw it was for sale and that day we asked for an appointment." Pear-aphernalia's grand re-opening is 10 a.m. Friday. There will be refreshments like coffee and lemonade throughout the day, and the store will be open until 8 p.m. to participate in Northville's First …

Patch.com Michigan is seeking advertising managers for several community news websites.
The majority of the project was paid for by Northville's Downtown Development Authority, and funding did not come from residential taxes.
The two-story covered walkway, also known as the Comerica Community Connection, that connects Main Street near Comerica Bank to the Marquis Parking Lot opened recently in downtown Northville. However, the project is not fully complete. The plans include a plaza at the back end near the parking lot. "We're hoping in the next three to four weeks the construction will start on it," said Lori Ward, Northville Downtown Development Authority (DDA) director. She said the project is planned in coordination with a parking lot resurfacing project, so construction should take about four to six weeks. Since the project is not complete, Ward said there is not a final total for its cost. "The original contract amount was $697,000 dollars," she said. "…

Funny. A wall caved in, and it completed way behind schedule - usually that means budget overruns which the taxpayers cover. I'm glad that is not the case. I agree with having security cameras. At least we'll nab graffiti artists. more ›

What do you think should go at the site of the former Northville psychiatric hospital?
A recent step brings Northville Township closer to demolition of the former psychiatric hospital on Seven Mile Road and closer to beginning the $82.6 million master plan for its redevelopment. The Northville Township board of trustees approved last week the spending of an additional $288,000 from the township's general fund so the former psychiatric hospital’s powerhouse could be safely demolished. The recreational redevelopment plans for the property include a community center, picnic areas and an energy park with a solar field and wind turbine. However, nothing is final and the plans remain up for discussion. Northville Patch reader John said in his comment on a previous story that a place for outdoor performances should be considered. "…

Marcus- The racetrack property lies within Northville City property lines, not the township so it is outside of this discussion, plus although those may be good ideas the racetrack situation is much bigger than just 'buying the property' and throwing up buildings as that is not the type of business a municipality is in, but private investors/developers. more ›
