I do not think they would give up any of the golf course in reality, but I could imagine a small lane hugging the right of way, perhaps for emergency use only. The other side of 127 might be a good place for this kind of an access lane to the new ho…

That would be the next great spot to develop in EL. I was reading about the Peanut Barrel's rehab, and the owner was saying that the building still has parts of the old supermarket that was there in the 60's. My sister would take me there when she…

I have a 35 years gap in my Lansing experiences so I did know this at one time, Forest Road goes under 127 onto East Lansing and MSU! The site makes a bit more sense to me now, and I know everyone else already knew this fact! There seems to be enoug…

I could see an old fashion ice cream stand in front and a regular store in the rear. It would not take much money to make a special setup.

I was reading that the new mayor is planning to announce some "exciting new projects" that will get underway in 2018, in a February 8th speech. I wonder if it will be about long-planned developments actually starting or maybe something new we have n…

Lansing is really rather small geographically, so anywhere from edge to edge takes less than 20 minutes by car, I think folks looking for a big box store will be able to find one in the area. This does leave another large empty space in that shoppin…

That would really nice for the neighborhood if they did. First, they would have to figure out how to make a parking lot that is difficult and crowded and broken up!:}

It is kind of less than ironic that the same day they announce their big "tax cut pay raises" to $11 dollars an hour, wow!, they close scores of Sam's Club stores without warning. They sure did not have the Treasury Secretary out there subtracting t…

I do know that recessions come in cycles, however, we happen to be in a global economy that is still expanding, with places like the African continent being included in development plans by China and the E.U. while they are still expanding their own…

This space it trying to shack its jinx, and it is a very good sign that they are not planning some temporary use of that land. I will hope for some contemporary interesting design that will guarantee this development's success and make a bold statem…

I believe MSU owns the land with the little pond across 127 on the west side. The location of the new hospital has been decided, hasn't it? If we are talking about where we would "like" to see the new hospital, I think the huge space at MLK and Ho…

It could because of the extream cold of late, but there does not seem to be anything going on in that building for a while now. I really would like to see a Quality Dairy store on the street level. I realize that is not what they will do there.

I am so glad to hear you had a great time in the hood! A few more shops and restaurants over here and it's going to be hard to find a parking spot.

I wonder why you think that a recession is on the way? I could see some issues with GM figuring out how to grow in the coming years. I have seen reports of the overall world economy as continuing to grow in future as more people around the world are…

I will hope for the best, but like you say, we should wait until it actually has funding plans and shovels in the ground before we celebrate. This company seems like real estate holders, not developers sometimes. We have seen a lot of these projects…

Another shop re-hab has begun at one of the two shops with the octagon shaped windows on S. Washington Avenue, next to the record shop. I am not sure what it is going to be, it may be a vintage jewelry store. The other shop has a women's clothing bo…

Thank you for the inside view of the new city government. I often wonder about politicians and their reasons for being. It would seem obvious for a city council person in Lansing to be pro-development. To have goals like getting marijuana out of Lan…

The bookstore was about the only store I shopped at Eastwood. Now there is not much reason to go there for except the movies. It would be great if they relocated downtown, or Michigan Ave maybe.

The "Y" development seems like it is going to happen this spring according to the LSJ.com. They are still showing the older "multi-capped" building design, which does not look like there is a large retail/commercial space on the ground floor, as was…

They are going to locate the new "Punk Taco" restaurant in Old Town, not near Frandor. They are not saying where it will be. Maybe in it will be the space, that the Thai restaurant is moving out of at Center Street and Cesar E Chavez Avenue/ North G…
