I was looking for something else and I came across this amazing 1920 video that shows Escanaba. Many of our relatives are here. I will further say that it was a happening place and I believe the Roaring 1920's are coming again. A few things going on....
1. New Investments in Industry and Infrastructure.
2. Tourism is significantly UP.
3. People are much more into recreation.
4. The downtown is ready for entrepreneurs if we can put together an investment packet and contacts to lure entrepreneurs, improve some of the investment buildings, and prepare the area for the major influx of 2K workers for Billerud. (Remember that this is a shot in the arm to the downtowns so we should maximize the housing and appeal of Escanaba downtown. Gladstone looks pretty good already.)
5. New House of Ludington Ownership and new Hampton coming in in the same spot. I heard through the rumor mill that another restaurant is coming in the same area. Something about wood pizza I think. (Shhhh its a secret but we should excited!)The area is going to attract some interest.
