  • I could see modern brick pavement on N. Washington. Capitol Ave is a real moonscape as well. I wonder how they chose, I would start with the block the Capitol is on and move out in ever larger squares from there. I like that the plan includes Ceasar…
  • I meant "worst streets" that are getting worse!:} Also I wonder why they left a few blocks out of the repaving of Pine Street?
  • I noticed that they are going to repave Seymour Street! This is good news as that street is one of the many worse streets in Lansing. I was wondering if the repaving plans had increased above earlier plans do to added funds by the state?
  • Yes, it looks nice and light, I think this color will reflect the skylight and look very bright on a sunny day. I can not wait to see it in 3-D!
  • I agree the houses they are going to tear down are much nicer than those ugly townhouses. They look like a public housing development, maybe not that nice.
  • I was thinking these are just preliminary renderings, I hope so!
  • Thanks for posting these photos, East Lansing had a wide variety of business, not just student-oriented eateries. Sometimes all those years I lived out east all of these places seemed like a dream, it is great to see these pictures that spark great …
  • I liked what they said about the hotel building will reflect MSU architecture. I would hope that means sort of Prairie Modern I'm thinking the Library the Kresge Art Department Building, the Music Building. I do not think this means Academic Gothic …
  • I will have to walk over that way, I have not been there in a while. Have they done any landscaping?
  • This was when I was at MSU and I wouldn't call it a plaza then more like a wide sidewalk in the middle with parking a lane off Ann Street. The Small Planet was a true "hippy" vegetarian restaurant with pine wood tables and booths. When I was very br…
  • That would be a great place for a hotel/casino it's true and is really where such a development should be built. Take out the city market and there would seem to be enough room. I was kind of thinking about what they should build if there is no casi…
  • I never really liked the location, it would be a good place for a parking structure next to the Lansing Center. I would rather see a casino as part of a first-class hotel. There are many places that could accommodate such a development in Lansing. I…
  • It would be interesting to note if the ridership goes up when gas prices reach $3.00. I have noticed these unmarked white buses going up and down S. Washington the windows are darkened so I can see if anyone is on the bus. Just something differen…
  • I could use that route! Drove down Pine Street it is really nice! I can picture the whole downtown with streets just like that.
  • I like that. we seem to be retro grading our roads
  • I saw where they are working on the Michigan Ave. Bridge, is this just a maintenance?
  • I agree that there must be a better place for a half-way house type facility, but having people working and living there is good. The new building looks great, I wish they would pave the streets leading to it. Chavez/Grand River past Washington is a…
  • It would seem like the market for self storage units most be very strong. They are still working on that huge facility on Hosmer and now they are turning a hotel in to a U-haul and self storage business! Well in this case[on S. Penn.] something real…
  • Now that this year is already nearly half over, I was wondering about a few projects that were said to be starting this year. The river trail repaving project, has it begun? I see the signs saying it is going to happen but I have not heard of any pa…
  • I wonder if this project will mean they won't be building the proposed welcome center? I am hoping they do not put a surface parking lot on top of these new structures, and that no more trees will be cut down.
