Michigan’s “Irish Hills” Might Be Getting a Lot More Irish

Every year, 3 million people visit Frankenmuth, Michigan to eat chicken at Zehnders, do some shopping and maybe have a few beers at Oktoberfest.

Soooo...according to MLive.com,  guy named Daniel Ross thinks he can create in Brooklyn, Michigan what they have in Frankenmuth. And it'll start with a place called the Old Irish Mill. A place that was originally a saw mill and then a Ford factory, will now have restaurants and pubs and microbreweries and shopping.Construction hasn't started yet - but it could be starting soon.

Here's the story.
