Downtown Lake Orion Ready For High Traffic Summer
The season for downtown events kicks off this weekend with the Flower Fair.
Downtown Lake Orion was under construction this time last year, when a variety of improvements were made to make Lake Orion a more walkable community.
Joe Johnson of Orion Neighborhood Television produced this video showcasing the result of last year's construction process.
Though there are no additional construction projects underway, Executive Director Suzanne Perreault is actively looking for ways to create more parking in the downtown area and is currently working to create a users to downtown.
