Ewing Township issued the following announcement on Nov. 20.
Brownstown Charter Township (Wayne Co.), one of Michigan’s original nine townships, has grown from a farming community in the 1880s into a bustling business hub with welcoming neighborhoods today. The township was officially organized in 1827, when Moses Roberts was elected as its first supervisor.
The 30.5 square-mile Brownstown Charter Township is part of the Metro Detroit, Michigan area known as downriver. Among the many varied types of residences are luxury apartments, starter homes, condominiums, Del-Webb senior community and beautiful established neighborhoods. The population has increased 30 percent in the past decade. The full-time police and fire departments ensure that the community is among the safest in the downriver area.
The township is business-friendly, with pro-growth policies and programs. More than 400 businesses are thriving in the township, including Henry Ford Health System, Amazon.com, Chevy Volt Battery Plant, Michigan CAT and Reino Linen.
One of the most exciting developments in the township is the Brownstown Town Center. Currently in development, the 175,000-square-foot retail center includes an investment of more than $16 million. The Town Center also includes a 115-unit luxury apartment complex and another 120-unit complex across the street. The final phase of 55-plus homes for the senior members of the community is near completion.
The township offers many recreational activities. One of the jewels is Lake Erie Metropark, situated at the mouth of the Huron River on Lake Erie. Along with three miles of shoreline, the park’s amenities include a wave pool, 18-hole golf course, boat launches, a marina and the Marshland Museum and Nature Center.
One of the township’s largest investments has been the
$7 million recreation campus that includes two dog parks, tennis courts, and an event center with an outdoor stage. The parks and recreation department offers a series of Movies and Concerts in the Park each summer. The splash park and newly renovated Thorn Park playground, with age appropriate play areas, is a highlight of the recreation campus. The parks and recreation department also has a full slate of programs for every age group. The downtown development authority hosts a farmers market each week during the summer.
Brownstown Charter Township has grown tremendously over the past few decades and looks forward to a bright future!
