Here’s a new one – both a new contractor for me and a new date. It’s on the west side of Shepard Street north of Kalamazoo, alongside the former Allen Neighborhood Center, which is currently transforming into a mixed use development called Allen Place.

This stamp is on the south end of the new sidewalk.

Leavitt & Starck Excavating, Inc., is based in Ovid. It was founded in 2011 by Dean Leavitt and Tom Starck. They must be involved in the Allen Place project.

The sidewalk curves at one point to avoid tree roots.
This is midway along. Oddly, there is no stamp to mark the north end of the new stretch of sidewalk.
