The Fahlen family plans to build two new restaurants and open both within a year. One will serve as the company's flagship eatery, while the other will bring back a popular eating spot on the city's west side that was destroyed by fire almost two years ago.
Grand Rapids city commissioners granted the Fahlens a zoning change last week that allows them to begin construction on a new Arnie's Restaurant and Bakery at 1999 East Beltline Ave NE, near the Knapp's Corner Meijer store. The restaurant will share parking spaces with the retailer.
"I think it's a good project," said Commissioner James White.
