He also bought a Two Lanes vacation rental and the Columbia Motor Alley bike shop in the same town.
While Mike continues to make renovations in the town, fans have been divided about his real estate efforts.
“Its kind of interesting because a lot of people don’t want change and some people do, so we’re in that flux,” a source exclusively told The U.S. Sun.
“They are building a six-story condo with a restaurant,” the source continued.
“Next to that is going to be a car place. The town is changing rapidly.”
An insider revealed to The U.S. Sun that “the project is costing $93 million.
“The town is happy Mike is taking this on to help new life to Columbia.
