I also saw a MSUFCU "ad" or announcement board next to the Union ATM [my closest] touting their support for the Ovation Arts and Performance Center, which is new to me and a good sign that this center is really going to happen. I have not been that way in a while has construction started.
While driving around I noticed crews cutting down all the trees on the SW corner of Oakland and Cedar, is this area part of the housing going up near Motor Wheel Lofts?
No. As far as I can tell, this was just clean-up of part of the site after a storm blew down some trees on the property a few months back. One of the trees had fallen into Cedar after the storm; had it fallens another way, it'd have crushed their neighbors house. There are still trees on the site, just nothing that could fall into either of the streets, now. Looking up the area on the parcel viewer (it's actually two lots), it looks like the lots were sold to an individual in March, but probably just passing through family members. It looks like at the end of October they got fined by code compliance for "Trash." I have to assume this was the fallen trees.
Anything Motor Wheels involved is directly adjacent to the factory.
