  • I'm not sure that they would change it back to four for the whole length. It was changed to three relatively recently. I think the section between Cedar and 127 was changed within the past 5 years.
  • I feel like all that is happening is that new student housing is built and then the students move from the previously-new units to the new ones, leaving the old ones partly empty. I've heard from a few people that Chandler Crossing is horrible to li…
  • The last I saw about the Bear Lake Pathway is that it is the first part of connecting the South Lansing Pathway to MSU. Bear Lake Pathway will exit the north side of Beekman Center on the east side of the Tammany Hills Apartments and west of I-496. …
  • I was sorry to see the annexation pass. It sounded like the owner of one of the commercial buildings there who was looking to open a marijuana-related business. Since Delta Township wouldn't allow it he wanted the area annexed by the city of Lansing…
  • I like the idea of the scooters, but so far the reality isn't living up to the ideal for me. I've personally come across scooters abandoned in the middle of trails and sidewalks in multiple locations. In some instances I've had to move them to the s…
  • Yes that photo was looking west from the T-junction on the trail.
  • In my understanding they will be replacing at least 1 bridge (it was torn out and sitting in the parking lot) and converting part of the trail into a bridge (the asphalt was completely excavated down to dirt) as well. It also looked like they had re…
  • Construction has started on the new River Trail bridge for the section of the trail between the bridge on the south side of Potter Park and the T-intersection just west of Aurelius near Kruger's Lansing. The trail has been ripped out and the parking…
  • Just went by these new turbines today. I'm actually a big fan of them. I love driving by them and just seeing them stretch out for miles. Not as crazy about solar in Michigan. I feel like wind power has good potential for Michigan though. I hope tha…
  • That sounds really interesting! Looking forward to trying it when it opens.
  • I was on Trowbridge yesterday morning and I noticed that they had started tearing down the old Howard Johnson's.
  • Also, has anyone heard what is going on at Consumers Concrete on Malcolm X St? For the past month they have been cleaning up their lot. A bunch of stacked blocks were bulldozed together and removed. The back portion of their lot is also showing sign…
  • Not a huge thing but it was announced yesterday that Culver's is building a new store near the South Penn Meijer. http://www.wilx.com/content/news/Culvers-coming-to-south-Lansing-439958333.html
  • I love that Georgio's. I still go in there and have been since it was Arby's. :-(
  • My understanding is that if Lot 2 is torn down nothing can be built there because of it's location in the floodplain. The floodplain location is another reason that the servers in the Computer Center are moving to the new data center.
  • But I've seen this stuff all my life too. I grew up on a dirt road that was the county line between Eaton and Barry counties. Neither really showed much interest in maintaining it, especially in the winter.
  • Yeah I'm pretty sure that the U Club is separately owned and not part of MSU. The Lansing part of Forest Rd is much nicer than the East Lansing part. A few problems in the bike lanes but overall pretty good for one of the older bike lanes in the cit…
  • I was impressed. I had low expectations but it's worked for me every time. Plus it's nice to be able to take a picture so they can see the issue.
  • I've had good luck with the City of Lansing app in the Amazon/Google store. Very quick response from that as well. I've used it to report street lights and traffic lights that are out.
  • I'll just be happy if this amounts to something after a couple failed projects there.
