  • The revised site plan can be found here: http://www.cityofeastlansing.com/Home/Modules/DMX/tabid/60/Default.aspx?Command=Core_Download&EntryId=9713 I would love for the owners of the Brookfield Plaza at the corner of Hagadorn and Grand River …
  • Were you able to save a copy of that site plan to your computer? It looks like they took down the image from their site now.
  • The city will team with the Lansing-based Ferguson Development Group, which is led by Joel Ferguson, and Columbus, Ohio-based Continental Real Estate to revitalize the former Red Cedar Golf Club along the border of Lansing and East Lansing. The $…
  • There is a news conference happening today to announce more details about this development. Without hearing anything yet, this is great news as it is another step towards the start of the project.
  • This is some impressive density. Yes it is, and it really shows how the properties on the opposite corner of Abbot and Grand River are underutilized.
  • Proposed Trowbridge revamp leaves out Goodrich's gives some more information about the Goodrich situation with the development. From reading this it sounds like the developer is trying to get a different market as the tenant.
  • Thanks for the update, I've created a separate thread just for Trowbridge Village.
  • With respect to Goodrich, I imagine that the construction detours will be their biggest problem and is likely their reasoning for saying that the project would put them out. The developer here would end up having to subsidize Goodrich during the con…
  • The first floor of each building is majority parking (this is what I meant by "Special to note that both residential buildings will have 30-40 spaces of parking on the ground floor of each building, with a single retail tenant one one of the sides."…
  • Probably a good idea to include the site plan blueprints as well, as they include some more details that might not be obvious at first glance. Special to note that both residential buildings will have 30-40 spaces of parking on the ground floor of e…
  • Tonight's East Lansing Planning Commission will receive a presentation about the Trowbridge Plaza redevelopment. You can read more about it in the packet here: http://eastlansing.granicus.com/MetaViewer.php?view_id=2&event_id=50&meta_id=1266…
  • Yes, the first floor will be parking with the exception of the bank. Given its location it's hard to not develop on the land. But it would be nice to include more pocket parks and remove much of the surface parking lots in favor of vertical parking.…
  • Actually I was going to post that they have already started site work (prior to the 31st). I went running by there on Tuesday and they had already blocked off the sidewalk and had started doing excavation work on the site.
  • Yeah I was thinking Neogen the whole time I was reading your post.
  • East Lansing and Lansing competing with each other hurts when trying to build a single solid downtown. Add to that some very fractured governments in the area that are pushing to create their own downtowns (Lansing Township and Bath Township). Havin…
  • This article makes the Amtrak project a little clearer, saying that the current building is expected to be torn down before the end of the year and that the new building is expected to be completed by early 2015. East Lansing Amtrak station projec…
  • That would be great!
  • Yeah, that part of the article was confusing to me. So if they indeed got the money halfway through September, I'm wondering if they'll break ground before winter.
  • CATA says it is delaying construction of the new Amtrak building in East Lansing because they haven't received the funding from the government yet. E. Lansing Amtrak revamp delayed
  • Cool, that makes sense as that's what I thought I saw on Wednesday when I drove past.
