Southside Development

Restarting the old Southside Development thread

There's a pretty interesting new development in the April 7th Planning Commission packet: https://lansingmi.portal.civicclerk.com/event/8224/files/agenda/14909

From the agenda:
BACKGROUND:
Lovejoy Community Services, with the consent and support of the property owner, Pentecostal
Church of God in Christ, is proposing the split of the subject property to facilitate a planned unit
development that would result in 6 detached single-family homes, 18 attached single-family
rowhouse units, 40 attached multi-family rowhouse units, a 14-unit apartment building, a multi-
use community building, and accessory urban agricultural farm spaces and buildings.


These aren't some fantastically high-quality buildings nor is the development trying to be some new-urbanist mecca, but I really like this project. Especially for its location. My biggest question is does it actually get built like these renderings because if so it'd be a quite cool little place. It's really worth checking out the rather extensive document included in the planning document, lots of renderings, elevations and more information.

  • Very cool, South Lansing is where most people live these days and could use new housing. I like the lay out with the gardens and woods, the buildings are interesting if basic. OK Lansing make it happen!
