These were just past the Village at Chandler Crossings. There's a retention pond, many newer pole barns and an older silver hangar that appeara as a white roof. It's hard to tell what it is from the aerials. Looking at the aerials, it's to the ea…

There's actually still at least one of the hangars still out there from the airport. I know one of the guys that owns what remains of the property. I used to spend a decent amount of time out there.

@gbdinlansing, you summed up a lot of wonderful features that stuck with a lot of people after attending Sexton. You actually may have been there in the same years as my aunt, but I know class sizes were pretty large back then! You'd never see a s…

Yes, I'm glad they have plans for it. I just worry they're going to ruin original features that remain. That auditorium is near original, architecturally. It's slated for renovation. I don't expect them to do a historical renovation of the space…

I hadn't been inside for probably 20+ years. Given its age, it's really held up well. I just hope upcoming projects don't completely remove the historical aspects that have managed to survive for so many years. I'll post something on here if …

I wish I'd thought to post here sooner to bring attention to others, but the Westside Neighborhood Association (WNA) put on a walking tour of Sexton today, which was absolutely wonderful. It sounds like they want to have additional tours, focused o…

I was trying to remember where the local DZs were! It was always such a reward to go there haha. I noticed this construction as well. It looked like they were breaking it up into a strip mall that would face Clippert. I'd be curious if they …

I'll believe it when I see it. Even if it does happen, it will never look like that. It will be the cheapest, most scaled back building. He'll probably try to make it a pole barn (you probably laugh, but that was a thing for awhile that killed pr…

I drive by this pretty regularly. It did move fast after several stalls. I figured it was a design build project based on how it it was progressing and how unprofessional/sporatic the whole renovation was. I've got to admit, it turned out better …

Yes, I think that's something we can all agree on. It's great to see something so significant and so many buildings actually happening. I just hope it isn't scaled back!

Gary Granger has been "planning" something there for over a decade at least. And not just an idea, he's met with the city several times with idea after idea. It's never going to happen, unless someone else pays for it. He wants the city to pay fo…

I figured that had to exist already, just hadn't had the time to check. Thanks!

Wow, you really put some thought into that Mao, city wide! Definitely a lot I hadn't thought of on there. I think there are a decent amount of these that are already historic sites, but it would be interesting to go over a map of those with what y…
-
Completely agree. I would have to agree, also, that this would be in danger. I don't think many realize what was there before all the addiitons. While not some masterpiece, it's still interesting and significant for the area. There has been reus…

I think Sexton and portions of the Westside should be historic districts but that's quite a task. At the very least, Sexton should be a historic site. I don't worry as much since there aren't any eager buyers nextdoor, and the district appears to …

With the horrible loss of Eastern and the way Sparrow went about it (neglecting the building beyond repair and constantly making up lies to get a cleared building site) it made me wonder. What buildings in the City of Lansing do others think should…

I guess it's about time we find a good challenger. I feel like there hasn't been a good mayoral choice in a long time...

They actively discriminate and force religion over well being. I have some major issues with them. This is a personal stance though. Holy Cross, I'm also not a fan of. Religion and homelessness should not be mixed. When their "mission" is to fo…
-
Yeah. I'm with you. I'm done with him at this point. This looks like suburban office parks I've worked on (not proud of them lol). A Comcast call center comes to mind. You're absolutely right. He sees it as a service center, not a communit…

Not sure if anyone saw this yet...also disappointing. We're really on a roll here with erasing local history. Just another reason I have problems with "The Mission". Wish we could rid them from this city. Given, the interior sounds ruined al…
