GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. (WOOD) — The residential property being built along with the new Bridge Street Market in Grand Rapids has been named.
Rockford Construction announced Thursday the building will be called “The Hendrik” in honor of Hendrik Meijer, founder of the Michigan-based grocery store retailer Meijer.
The project also includes a parking deck, fitness center and rooftop patio, in addition to the Bridge Street Market.
Rockford Construction began tearing down old buildings at the location in April 2017 and the store is scheduled to open in the fall of 2018. Originally, the project had around a $55 million price tag and was expected to create 150 new jobs.
The project received a $6 million loan and $13 million in tax breaks from the state.
