COLDWATER, MI (WTVB) – The construction of the Lofts at Milnes Plaza project in downtown Coldwater was originally scheduled to start a month ago, but except for some utility line markings on the pavement, no work has taken place so far.
Coldwater City Manager Keith Baker says the project is still moving forward and work is scheduled to now begin in early July. According to Baker, the developer says they are just finalizing details.
The construction of the 50-unit four story building in the Milnes parking lot is expected to take one year to complete.
Parrish Excavating of Quincy will be reconstructing the underground utilities after they submitted a winning bid of just under $126,000.
The project will include repairs and replacement of water, sanitary sewer, electrical and storm sewer utilities to the adjacent buildings on U.S. 12 and North Monroe Street.
