A2Y Chamber Event: Early Edition - October 2025
Downtown Ann Arbor in Transition: A Conversation with Local Business Leaders
Downtown Ann Arbor is experiencing a moment of transformation. Longtime favorites have closed their doors, while new businesses are bringing fresh ideas and energy to the community. What does this shift mean for the culture, economy, and future of our downtown?
Join us for a candid panel discussion with local business leaders who are on the front lines of these changes. They will share their perspectives on the challenges and opportunities of operating downtown today, what they see shaping the future, and how the business community can adapt to support a thriving, vibrant city center.
This is an opportunity to better understand the evolving landscape of downtown Ann Arbor—and to join the conversation about what comes next.
Panelist:

Grace Singleton, Managing Partner,
Zingerman's Delicatessen

Joseph Giant, Director of Economic Development
City of Ann Arbor
