I always get jealous when I see the Wharton. I wish it was here in Lansing.

The completed Chemistry addition for anyone who has not yet seen it.

well, i still hate chemistry, but the building addition doesn't look bad.

It makes the building a lot more imposing. I think that's mainly because of the overhang at the top, and how close it is to the sidewalk and the road.

Here's a very interesting story about Broadway shows coming to East Lansing: Broadway's Love Affair with East Lansing

I had always just assumed that shows like the Lion King were normal to have in a city the sized of Lansing, I figured that Detroit, Chicago, GR, ect.... all got their own shows. I had no idea how special the Wharon Center is, Wharton getting Broadway shows is truely impressive.

Wow, nice cyclotron rendering. Do you know when it is planned for, or is it just a concept at this point?

It was on their construction website as if the work has already started, so I don't know.
