This will be Buddy's 15th store after announcing its plans to open a Grand Rapids location in January. The original store, located at 17125 Conant St. in Detroit has been operating since 1946. The modest pizzeria became famous for creating Detroit-style pizza, known for its deep square pans lined with cheese baked into a thick and crispy crust.
