That's good to hear about the sidewalk on Dunckel. I'd like to see at least one side of Aurelius with sidewalks between Mt Hope and Cavanaugh next. I remember reading on the city's website that their current funding level only allows for a half-mile…

Those are new bicycles in the truck blocking the bike lane. :-) If I remember right that was part of the route that was under consideration for the River Trail to Frandor segment instead of bike lanes on Michigan. Hopefully this is the first step…

You're welcome @hood. I can't even picture how the revisions to Shaw will affect traffic. I'll just have to wait to see I guess.

It looks like Crescent will connect to the Commuter Lot (Lot 89) and not Recycling Dr, which is on the other side of the train tracks. It's still kind of weird though because it will go through the Ag Expo site. I'm happy to see the entrance to the …

Data centers are usually placed away from busy areas in order to be more secure.

They have been talking about this for a while now. Last I heard they were looking at a site on Mt Hope near the Tennis Center. I'm glad it finally got done though. I think Crescent Rd will be a good location for it. Much better than in the Computer…

I love this idea! It's already way more busy than I ever expected. I'd love to see it busy year-round.

The property in the tech park is owned by the MSU Foundation. I found that out by accident last week. There's a sign in front of 4000 Collins Rd saying that MSU Foundation is moving there from the north side of the tech park. Living as close as I do…

That Trowbridge QD building is horrible. It's too small and the only time I ever saw it busy was when people would walk across from the old train station. Hopefully they will rebuild in the area.

So I was driving by the old Dykstra Ford/Metro Ford building on MLK and Holmes the other night and it hit me as I passed it that there were lights on inside the building and what I thought was scaffolding. I tried to see if there was still a For Sal…

It sounds like TCBA has been pushing for the Saginaw extension and I think something on Oakland also. Curb-protected bike lanes would be awesome. I've seen them in other cities and they look great. Makes me jealous. They are still relatively new so …

So I found this proposal from the TCBA that would create a bicycle link between Downtown Lansing and Frandor. It wouls branch off the River Trail near Shiawassee and run north of Michigan on mostly residential streets until it reaches the west side …

I'm pretty sure that it was there when I moved to the south side in 03. I don't remember for sure though.

This is a small thing, but the burned-out former medical office on the west side of Aurelius about halfway between Forest and Cavanaugh has been torn down. It happened sometime in the last couple days. Not sure if they are doing anything with that p…

Bill Snethkamp already added Chrysler and Jeep to their Pennsylvania store when they closed their Mason store. Evidently Champion Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram on West Saginaw was fighting the addition of those franchises so close to them. That will be ni…

I don't remember seeing anything on it but that isn't too strange. I'm surprised that GM is letting them keep the old facade. They are pretty strict when it comes to their image standards. Even Terry Hanks wasn't able to avoid renovating.
-
Kind of a small thing, but I noticed yesterday that Feldman Chevy is tearing down the old brick building on the corner of Michigan & Howard. Don't know if that corner will be empty or if something will be rebuilt. There are signs all around it t…

There is a group that recently started. The Friends of the Lansing River Trail. I believe that their first meeting was earlier this year. One of the points brought up during their initial meeting was how to best allocate the money that was earmarke…

Agreed. Just simple maintenance like sweeping the bike lanes would help immensely. I did the Hawk-I Triathlon in May and the stretch of Mt Hope from Aurelius to 496 was the worst section of the bike ride, although Beaumont and Forest were pretty bad…

I live about a half mile away from that lot on Aurelius. I've been here since 2003 and I've never seen any signs on that property. But like you said it's always maintained. The deer from Hawk Island, Scott Woods, and all the other little parks aroun…
