It is just a small project that I noticed over on the corner of Kalamazoo and Pennsylvania, a long vacant eye sore convenance store is being renovated. I wonder if this area will become more attractive to developers as Sparrow grows. I hope the plan…

I guess this is a positive project, the thing I don't like about this type of inflatable building is that they can become dirty and stained by rain and pollution. There are a lot of these buildings out east, maybe they are made of better martials th…

At last night's game Spartan basketball game, the U of M proved again that they don't really care about our traditions or history here in Greater Lansing and then to just pretend like they did not know about our traditions and history is ingenuous. …

There are tow new restaurants moving into the remodeled store fronts next to El Azteco which have been mostly vacant for years. A slider burger joint and a pizza place. OK I hope they serve good food they have a lot of competition in this neighborho…

Thanks for the photos of wonderful buildings in other cities, now I really do have a case of project envy! I remember the first drawings of the "Ovation" which were rather strange imo, that project did benefit from a lot of input from citizens I bel…

When I think of the two City Halls Lansing built in the past, I think of the excellent designs that reflected the era they were built. A Romanesque castle and a Mid-Century classic office and public meeting building. Remember the marbled walls and w…

thanks for the information. As service/mini-market station it is not as bad as it could be, and will be an improvement over the decaying but cool old building.

I saw they were tearing down Eastern today:{

I walked over to the EL post office where I noticed the demolition of the unusual Marathon service station was nearly done. I hoped they would keep the '60s modern layout that basically hide the pumps from the street. I was just a kid when East Lans…

I agree that U of M leaders seem deaf to Lansing citizens' concerns about their own neighborhood. They have a great institution that is benefiting our community however this issue seems to point to some arrogance on their part. I am a Spartan, and I…

I enjoyed looking at the old photos of Eastern High School on LSJ.com. I went to Sexton, so I did not visit Eastern very often, I had never seen some of the beautiful classic areas of the building. It looks like they are going to indeed tear it down…

Thanks for the information, the more green space owned by the city the better!

This is confusing as it seems that these parcels are already part of the river trail. It would be interesting to know what they plan to do with the extra land.

I would guess the areas near Michigan Ave to the north would be out of the flood zone, all these years later and the township still poorly maintains this little shanty town in the middle our metropolitan area. Look at the top photo the street looks …

This is good news; I used to live right across the street and this building filled the view from our window. I saw some crazy stuff over there. I believe the building is vacant these days, and they have removed all the shrubbery seen in this picture…

Looks like we rank pretty low on a list of Best Capital City where Lansing [not Greater Lansing] is ranked #39! I think maybe that is too low, but they did not ask me!
-
Of course, new buildings that have people living there will be a great improvement over those strange buildings that are there now, we can hope they will look better that these A.I. [?] depictions. Not a lot of imagination in these pictures.
-
There are new depictions of the new building on LSJ.com, they look somewhat better than earlier versions. Much less prison/warehouse like!

A large crane is at the south end of Spartan Stadium for the dismantling of the 11-year-old! score board which seemed to work pretty well to me but is ancient in terms of technology. I guess. I am hoping to able to watch the game on the new jumbo sc…

When I read 2 or 3 years from now for most every project that is planned for Lansing it makes me crazy. How about paving E Michigan Ave in front of Frandor tomorrow, that would be a good place to start.
