KALAMAZOO, Mich. (WOOD) — A new Kalamazoo County courthouse is one step closer to becoming a reality after a land swap deal was recently finalized.
After about 20 years of trying to revitalize the area, a deal was finally struck to invest $100 to $200 million in to the project in the northwest corner of downtown Kalamazoo.
In a deal involving six Kalamazoo organizations, local developer PlazaCorp will get the historic Kalamazoo County courthouse on Michigan Avenue. In return, Kalamazoo County will get a parcel of land in the Arcadia Commons west part of downtown Kalamazoo. That piece of land is of Kalamazoo Avenue between Cooley and Park streets.
