  • We continue our 13 On Your Side of Town series with a view of Muskegon as it might appear five years into the future.
    The past often informs the present.
    If you left city limits between five and ten years ago and just pulled back into town, you’d be in for a dramatic homecoming.

    Our city leaders have lost sight of what this town is. We have lake front property with very little public access, mostly homes or condos with loads of boat slips. Commercial and industrial is the name of the tax game. We have a gem of a lake that is the key to the future.

    Stop putting up these houses that are so close together and to expensive. Make the rent reasonable for those who work and with children can get a decent home without skyrocketing rents and prices. Let be RIGHT not MONEY HUNGER! Stop making it all about the MONEY. Praying that people will be right and do the right things.

      It's only going to get harder for the lower income people that live here. Where do they go? We will end up like CA... Tents lining the streets downtown and surrounding areas. The growth needs to include housing for lower income people, not just the well off.

    Empty majority of lots in my old neighborhood remain after 55 years when Urban Renewal tore them down. My mother was very afraid they were going to take our house.
