Could Elmwood Township Land Become Regional Park?

The Leelanau Enterprise and the Traverse City Record-Eagle both have stories about evolving discussions for community purchase and establishment of a regional park at the site of several proposed but never completed developments in Elmwood Township. Owner Dr. John Milliken has proposed property could become home for a performing arts center that would host the Traverse Symphony Orchestra. Other potential uses include a home for the Traverse City zoo, a convention center and botanical gardens. The land is diverse enough to allow for intense uses and still offer hiking and cross country trails with stunning views of the Grand Traverse Bay.
