Proposed City Place development in downtown Ann Arbor
Spencer noted that a developer is proposing new downtown apartments. I put together this map to show where it would be.
NOT FIELD CHECKED so some of the details might be wrong, please comment and I'll fix.

You could actually overlay the image on the map - georectified - using MetaCarta Labs Map Rectifier (http://labs.metacarta.com/rectifier/) or GMap Uploader (http://gmapuploader.com/) (the latter was developed by Kyle Mulka - a former UMich student now at Amazon).
This also shows the usefulness of something like MySociety's Planning Alerts (http://www.planningalerts.com) that would generate a subscribable feed and other notifications for things like this.
