Together, the community outlined a common vision for our Village and, now, it's becoming a reality. I’m excited to see the Village’s best attributes amplified along with new developments, complementing what is already here and flourishing.George Haga, Ada Township Supervisor
The Village will offer improved access to the Thornapple River, complete with a public amphitheater and riverfront park, as well as a mix of retail, restaurants and residential uses.
Ada was first established as a fur trading post in 1821 by Rix Robinson and was Kent County's first official settlement.
Built in 1867 and replaced after a fire in 1979, the Ada covered bridge is one of the area's cherished icons. Today, it's one of the few left standing in Michigan.
