General Lansing Development

Just FYI, the building at 827 E Michigan is for sale. It would make for a prime redevelopment opprotunity. The parking lot directly north of it and the parking lot at Michigan & Eighth is also for sale. The reason I bring this up is because I wouldn't be at all suprised to see this building get remodeled, maybe even into some residential. The parking lot on Michigan could also provide an opprotunity for a small to moderately sized development.

Check out this story on the fully restored Mutual Building, it also includes a photo gallery. Christman did a real nice job on this.

$12M renovation by Christman Co. adds dash of modernity to historic site

I had read the article but never noticed the photo gallery. It sure looks nice inside of the building. Do you know how many square feet it is?

It's around 60,000 sq ft.

Just fyi, the same guy that owns Omar's and The Exchange is opening a new nigthclub named Harem next to the Nuthouse. It's slated to be a 3 night a week club with a middle-eastern motif. They have signs up in the windows, but I have yet to look close enough to read everything on them. I've also heard from a reliable source that there are several more bars/clubs getting ready to open downtown in the next year or so.

Here are some SketchUp images of Lansing. I added in all the proposed projects, ones in Blue are proposed, ones in green are under construction.

I'm assuming there's more to it, I guess we'll have to wait and see.
