A 47,000 sq ft mixed-use development on 3.1 acres at the corner of Hagadorn and Mt. Hope. There is two buildings, with ground-floor office, and 24 apartment units above. Both buildings should be about 3-4 stories tall.
-
I love how they just HAD to name it "The Hamptons." I should be able to provide somewhat frequent updates on this development since I'll be passing by it anytime I drive between EL and I-96.
-
It's proper name is "The Hamptons of Meridian". They already have the foundation poured and curbs in for the parking lot. The buildings should start to rise soon.

Who's the developer, architect, any website...? BTW, this must be built right at the edge of the start of MSU's experimental farms. I've always liked how the farms create a barrier to sprawl, and I hope it stays that way. -
DTN is the developer, and I know KEBS has done some work for it. Also, I believe Callaway Design, Inc. did the design. There is a rendering on site but I haven't been able to find one online.
-
Here is the rendering that is on site:
My page on Flickr
It looks like there is an entrance in the middle of the building on the rendering, but as they have been doing all the site work, it appears that the entrances to the parking will be at the corners. -
They have laid the foundation for one of the buildings, but the construction has appeared to slow down a great bit, as there are no large machines on site as of Friday.
-
Can anybody think of the reason that there would still be no upward growth of the buildings? There is just the cement foundations, and it looks like they are getting ready to lay some asphalt for a first layer of the parking lot.
-
There is now steel going up on the site, on the building facing Mt. Hope.
-
Yeah, I went by the site today on my way to work and saw the steel starting to come up. They had the back half of the first floor and a cross section on one or two of the beams (i'm not sure of the name, but it was from the front to the back of the building).
-
The steel has started to go up on the second building, while the first building appears to have all the steel done for the first floor. Some wooden staircases have been built that go up to the second floor on the first building.

Turner + Callaway is the architect, Todd Callaway is the designer. Todd has designed most of the loft projects in town including the motorwheel lofts, the hollister lofts, gillespie's lofts and he did the blue coyote, clark hill and even the Harley dealer in town. He is working with Kris Elliott doing a loft project in grand rapids as well. Hamptons should be a nice mixed use development and the detailing is spot on, colors are iffy.

Welcome to the forum blakerevo. Thanks for the information.
-
cool site, you guys are really into the happenings of Lansing. More power to you and get shots of some of thew buildings in town!
-
make that "great" shots...been a long day and my typing skills are marginal right now.

"He is working with Kris Elliott doing a loft project in grand rapids as well."
I live in GR, do you happen to know what project he is working on here? -
333 commerce rd. near downtown.

There really needs to be a recent picture or two of this here on the site. I'd maybe even say a project page despite how late into the project it is as I'm writing this. While its kind of funny looking being near the farmland and stuff, I will say that it looks nice and even has a little clock tower too. -
Well the picture from capitalgainsmedia is a little old. The clock tower is now finished and the outside of all the buildings looks complete. There is a little pond in the back of the buildings with a wooden bridge over it. My camera is currently broke otherwise I would have taken the picture by now since I go by there daily.
-
This is done now. It turned out nice. It would have been really nice if they could have buried the electrical running north and south along Hagadorn, but Im sure that wouldnt have been cheap.
There is a salon on the east side of the Mt. Hope building, but not much else appears to be going on commercially.
