This nice Moore Trosper sign is just west of the entrance drive of the Meridian Mall, on the north side of Grand River Avenue in Meridian Township. I like how the crisply-laid date makes it clear that they are using a modular stamp in which each digit can be replaced separately.
Grand River Ave., East Jordan Iron Works Utility Cover, Meridian Twp.
Here is a nice East Jordan Iron Works water utility cover from the north side of Grand River Avenue just west of the mall. I wondered if the tree by the river was from the seal of Meridian Township, but no, it appears that their seal depicts a log cabin and a tipi.
Grand River Ave., Meridian Twp., Merlo Const., 2022
Continuing my walk near the Meridian Mall, I found another new-to-me contractor stamp. This one is in front of Buddy’s Pizza on the north side of Grand River Avenue, a short distance west of the mall entrance.
Merlo Construction is based on Milford, which is pretty far afield from Meridian Township, so I assume a pretty big project brought them here. According to the About page on their Web site, the business was founded by Perry and Ray Merlo in 1991.
Grand River Ave., Meridian Twp., Mauldon Const., 2012
I went for a walk while waiting for my car to get a tire replacement at Discount Tire on Grand River Avenue in Meridian Township. In the process, I found a few new sidewalk stamps, for the first time in a while. This one is in front of a Taco Bell on the north side of the street, across from Meijer.
Mauldon Const. is most likely Mauldon Brothers Construction of Mason, which I believe to be the continuation of Glen Mauldon Construction (Glen having died in 2012). I can’t find out much about the business or its history, except that it seems that they particularly do sewer work and have been contracted to do such work by Meridian Township at times. It is likely, then, that this sidewalk replacement was done as the result of sewer work along Grand River.
