I didn‘t realize I had undertaken a project without end, that it is a continuing work in progress, an evolving organism. The People Directory has grown to include biographical sketches of thousands of people who lived in this area between the eighteenth and the twenty-first centuries. While the People Directory is not a complete census of everyone who ever resided in Northwest Ottawa County, it is far more extensive than I ever thought possible. To complement the biographies, I recorded where those people lived and worked in Directory of Buildings and Sites, followed by Directory of Businesses, Industries, and Other Organizations, which summarized the life spans of the hundreds of manufactories, retail stores, and non-profit groups in which area residents worked. The fourth book, Directory of Historical Topics, presents a small encyclopedia of local history. Each directory supplements the others, and together they provide a detailed history of Northwest Ottawa County. Each revision since the first printing in 1999 included additions and corrections, many based on information received from dozens of families. The 2012 edition is graciously funded by a grant from the William Middlemist Drake Heritage Fund, administered by the Tri-Cities Historical Museum, the second time it has supported a printing of the Directories. I am also thankful to the Grand Haven Area Community Foundation for its generous financial support in making the initial printing in 1999 a reality. These grants allowed the Directories to be distributed to schools in the Tri-Cities area for use by students studying local history. Alice Seaver and Joan Humphreys Bergbower merit considerable credit for assistance in gathering many names for the first printing of the People Directory. For the inaugural Business Directory, credit goes to Don Foster, who found a considerable amount of valuable information at the Tri-Cities Chamber of Commerce Loutit Library and the Tri-Cities Historical Museum deserve my gratitude for providing access to their extensive records and resources. The library maintains an excellent free web site that offers easily-accessed genealogical and historical data, including virtual editions of the four Directories. Similarly, I used Ottawa County GenWeb extensively, and thank Evelyn Sawyer and the other volunteers who laboriously entered an astounding amount of statistical and biographical information. I convey deep appreciation to Chuck Rycenga II, who lent me his rare copy of the 1908 Grand Haven City Directory, the earliest edition I have seen. A source that both records and stores history is the Grand Haven Tribune, available on microfilm at Loutit Library. Special thanks to Jane Ewing, whose eye for layout and design gave the directories a fresh and appealing look. In this Building and Sites Directory addresses are presented first in numerical order and then in alphabetical order. References at the end of an entry cite the source for some of the information, and brackets after a name, date, or address show alternate spellings or data. Tribune refers to the Grand Haven Tribune, or one of its predecessors, and Chronicle is a reference to the Muskegon Chronicle. Entries that have no citation came from genealogical data found on the Internet or from isolated scraps of information. The bibliography lists my major resources. Wallace K.

    The Ensley Athletic Center is the latest major facilities addition to the Lampe Athletics Complex. The $13 million building was constructed in seven months and opened in January 2015. It serves as an indoor training center for the football program, as well as other sports. A multi- million dollar gift from Cliff Ensley, a walk-on who earned a football scholarship and became a three-sport standout at Syracuse in the late 1960s, combined with major gifts from Dick and Jean Thompson, made the construction of the 87,000 square-foot practice facility possible. The construction of Plaza 44, which will The Ensley Athletic Center includes a 7,600 tell the story of Syracuse’s most famous square-foot entry pavilion that houses number, has begun.
