TRAVERSE CITY — Traverse City architect Bob Holdeman designed many of Traverse City's important buildings starting in the 1970s.
He and his wife, Jane, believe art is life and they've left their mark on the area in many ways.
The couple were due to receive the fourth annual Legacy Award Saturday from the Michigan Legacy Art Park at Crystal Mountain Resort. See today's Northern Living story to learn more about the Holdemans and their impact on the area's arts community and the local landscape.
