Swedwood, the industrial group within IKEA, the leading home furnishings retailer, announced plans to build a manufacturing facility in Danville, Virginia. The factory will be the Swedish companys first furniture production location in the United States, and will produce a variety of wood-based IKEA products such as EXPEDIT bookshelves, LACK coffee and side tables, MAGIKER modular entertainment systems and PAX wardrobe frames. Pending permits and construction, the facility will open in early 2008, and will create up to 740 jobs. The 810,000 square-foot future Swedwood factory will be built on 209 acres in Cane Creek Centre, in the City of Danville, VA in Pittsylvania County, VA approximately 50 miles north of Greensboro, NC. The close proximity to many IKEA stores and distribution centers, coupled with good regional infrastructure and available land, make Danville ideal for this North American production facility, said Bengt Danielsson, North American president of Swedwood.
Motorists who battled barrels, barricades and detours for the past several months are getting some relief as road construction projects wind down for the year -- except on M-14 and a couple of other projects on which work will continue into December, and beyond. The Michigan Department of Transportation broke ground this spring on several major efforts, including repaving I-75 at the Wayne/Oakland border; resurfacing Woodward Avenue in Detroit and Highland Park; reconstructing the Franklin Road Bridge over I-696 and rebuilding the Lodge Freeway in the Mixing Bowl area where the freeway meets Telegraph and I-696 in a dizzying tangle of freeways, ramps, bridges and bypasses. "Thank God it's finished," said Southfield resident Manny Kalef, who lives off 11 Mile, about the Lodge work.

Oct. 16 (Bloomberg) -- Most U.S. home markets are in bear mode as anxious sellers growl and buyers are scarce. All of the leading indicators now painfully confirm that. To all the existing indexes, I'd like to add one more: The Donald Trump Index. This is mostly a psychological measure based on the popularity and price of real-estate-oriented ``wealth- building'' seminars headlined by the property mogul and TV star. Last year, when the home market peaked, the Real Estate Wealth Expo, featuring Trump and 70 other money mavens such as Suze Orman, charged as much as $499 per person and attracted more than 60,000 participants, according to the Learning Annex, the New York-based education company that sponsors the shows. Recent ads for the event offered a price as low as $99 for similar seminars that are scheduled in cities such as New York, Chicago, Boston, Los Angeles and Toronto.
