Work is underway on streets and utilities in Saginaw’s first mixed-use developments, which will bring restaurants, retail and new homes to the community.

The Square and Beltmill developments are coming to the northern part of Saginaw.

The Square, a 27.25-acre development between Saginaw Boulevard and Old Decatur Road, will have restaurants with table service and wait staff, retail, offices and multi-family housing.

Farooq Wazirali, managing partner for The Square development, said the company is negotiating with a Japanese hibachi and a seafood restaurant to locate in Saginaw, and said he is confident that restaurants will come to the development because the company has relationships with owners.

Wazirali added that the company is also considering developing a shopping center in the Square.

The company also donated land to Saginaw for a park or other public use.

“We’re hoping The Square will become the center of Saginaw,” he said. “The idea is to bring everything in one development, multi-family, commercial, restaurants and a park.”

City Manager Gabe Reaume said having sit-down restaurants is a top priority for Saginaw residents.

“We are excited; we think it will be really nice,” Reaume said of the development.
