Converting Pearl Alley on campus into a retail / restaurant row
On the weekends and other nights of heavy foot traffic, Pearl Street (Alley) on campus fills with students. The roadway, at times, becomes nearly impossible for traffic to pass. In appearance, large sections of the road are a mess.
Campus Partners wants to change all of that.
Business First reports that the group is working on plans to make the area inviting to potential new business. Plans being floated include the widening of the street to allow for two-way traffic and turning that stretch of Pearl into an area for more independent-type businesses…retail and restaurants. Campus Partners doesn’t own the entire area and hopes to work with other property owners to improve that portion of Pearl for development. (jj)
