Sorry for the long delay in replying here. Yes, I agree more specific project-oriented threads are a good idea. Would pinning the other long running threads be counterproductive in this though?
@Jared@MichMatters Would either of you like to help me keep a stickied post updated showing all the proposed/under construction projects in the area to give any potential lurkers or people wandering in from Google a brief rundown of goings on? I started a list here that I'll copy and paste to a new thread if you guys think it's worth doing:
-N Grand River Apartments
This 10-floor 168 unit apartment complex would be built on the east side of N Grand River on the north bank of the river. No stories yet in local media but was going through zoning approval in August 2022.
-MSU to Lake Lansing trail(Under Construction)
This new trail will extend from the end of the existing Rivertrail at Hagadorn & Shaw to Lake Lansing Park South then onto Lake Lansing Park North. When completed it will include 5.5 miles of new trail while connecting almost 5 miles of existing trail.
Thanks. If you ever feel the need to edit or update anything feel free, I consider it sort of a community post, I just want to keep the comments clear so I can archive projects further down the thread. I'm going to do my best to keep it updated myself and maybe format it a little better as well.
Is there capacity to upload renderings right to the site?
Ok, I might work towards uploading the renderings at least for that thread sense I hope it to function as a sort of archive, I'll watch the image sizes.
I got a warning from the website hosting company that the bandwidth for the month is over the limit. It's at 104% of capacity right now. If it gets to 125% they will take the site offline for the rest of the month. I think we will need to stop hosting images on the server as that is likely the main contributor to the bandwidth usage. When I get the time I'll look to see what the largest contributors to the bandwidth usage are and see if I can reduce the filesize on them first.
