Posted by – Steve Cohen, Director of Community Development

An application has been submitted to the City of Auburn Hills to allow the demolition of the recently closed Palm Palace Restaurant and the redevelopment of the property with the construction of a new 12,206 sq. ft. retail shopping center.  The site is located at 2065 N. Squirrel Road

The proposed development will include six retail tenant spaces.  A 2,201 sq. ft. Starbucks coffee shop, designed with an associated drive-thru, is anticipated to be the center’s anchor tenant and will be located in the southern unit situated near the corner of University Drive and N. Squirrel Road.
