    Where? Kalamazoo and? Linky?

    The block between Cedar and Larch, across the street from Wendy's.

    They need a relatively large parking garage for this area, something at least 600 spaces for both the new developments and Olds Park, and also for future developments.

    There are not enough spots to build a few 2-3 floor ramps while still having enough spaces to meet current and future need. There are really only a few decent places to build on, the land behind Clara's up to those condos, the land across Shiwassee parallelling the train tracks, and the properties behind the Kalamazoo Gateway, and the lot behind Stadium District. Besides those lots are large enough to have at least a 400 space ramp be only 3-5 floors high, even with ground floor retail, I think 3-5 parking ramp floors is an accceptable height for this area.

    Gene Townsend needs to buy the Spartan-Yellow Cab lot before he can start on the project, and it looks like Yellow Cab has been reluctant to sell. He has until January 30 to finish the deal. Do you think he will get it?
  • hoodhood
    If he doesn' the city would likely allow him to move forward. Then the city could take the property under emminent domain, or they could just deal with less parking.

    So, 1320AM reported that the Lansing City Council sent this project back down to committee because they didn't like some of the language in the plans.

    Anyone know specifically what the problem was?
