About 200 workers will move next year into the near-empty structure on 44th St. east of Kalamazoo Ave., to centralize administrative and financial functions of St. Mary’s Mercy Medical hospitals in Grand Rapids, Muskegon and Battle Creek. The medical system bought the building this week from its most recent owner, Per Se Inc., a medical billing company whose offices occupy about a third of the mall. The only other tenant is a JCPenney catalog order center. The two businesses will stay, taking up about half of the space. The Mercy Medical offices will take up around half of what’s left, and St. Mary’s would be happy to rent the remainder to stores or other businesses." -- from www.skyview.iserv.net/newsroomarchive99.html
