Flint's north side will soon see the revitalization of a vacant building. A new project in the City of Flint will see a vacant building on the north end of Flint turned into a co-op grocery store. The new North Flint Food Market will be placed in the long-vacant building at Pierson and Clio Roads. This new market is expected to create 27 new and permanent, full-time jobs. This project was just recently announced by the Michigan Economic Development Corporation and Governor Gretchen Whitmer.
