  • I honestly think a small casino in downtown would add a "coolness" as in another entertainment option among night clubs restaurants and sports venues. Jobs in the hospitality business can be good paying that depends on the management. Hotels in Lans…
  • Thank you, I am happy to hear that the clock works! I guess I have never been in the area at that time the music plays. I like the clock and I will make a point of being there the hear it play. The area that is full of weeds is the seating area next…
  • I believe that this lot maybe part of the Leaseway property, this lot is across the street from the old main building. It seems like a couple of businesses have moved into the larger building on the right side of St. Joe. The lot that is where work …
  • This clock looks great and I am so impressed that the owners wanted to do it right not cheap. Meanwhile I have been wondering about another clock downtown. The "Rotary Clock" at Michigan and Grand. It does tell time, but I have often wondered what e…
  • I noticed that a huge surface parking lot over on W. St Joe just past the tracks has been pulled up and it looks like something besides a parking lot is going in there. Anyone know about this site? Is it one of the former GM sites? It was a transit…
  • Wow great views! I had not really thought about that aspect of being in the building looking out. The inner courtyard looks good too. I had building kit when I was a kid and all the "blocks or panels" looked just like this. Lansing looks like it is …
  • I have to say that I do go out there to visit the book store but I rarely shop at the other stores mainly because it is not that pleasant to walk around and it's kind of a pain to get in the car and drive to the next shop. They do keep the green spa…
  • Over all I like the new building. I do wish the spent a little more on the facade materials and maybe framing the windows. It really does loom in the eastern view coming down Michigan Ave, and all you can really see from 127 is the parking ramp, whi…
  • I am not sure but from looking at the drawings it looks like they already set back the taller buildings. It seems like this is about residential single houses.
  • Well I was thinking that a golf course clubhouse could serve more than one purpose and allow people who are not golfers to enjoy the green space. I'm thinking of weddings, Holiday parties, class reunions not really conventions or business meetings. …
  • I am not sure why the mayor thinks he should do this right away, but like the sunken garden they cut all those trees down right away so as to say this it happening and there is no going back we already cut down all the trees. There could have been a…
  • I am pretty sure there was a retail store where the bottling machines are now. It was the late 70's early 80's when I lived around the corner on Moores River Dr.. I did not go there often my folks still lived on Park Ave. so I went to the Pattengill…
  • The circle drive and landscaping look very nice. It is kind of a "fancy" building for Lansing, I like that they decided to build something that is nicer than it has to be. Even the parking ramp looks good! I wonder if people will walk up the the sig…
  • The building seems to have withstood the fire inside pretty well. Maybe now QD will fix it up and remove the trees growing on the roof. Why not a QD store in the street front building? The neighborhood needs a convenience store. Right now the gas st…
  • I think this is part of Sellers Ave, a city street. The entrance next to the Skyvue building has also been repaved it is called Morgan Lane on googlemaps. Looks like more trees and landscaping are being added as well. Now we can add another half mil…
  • It does seem like they do a minimum amount of upkeep on some of their buildings. They have recently re-painted the processing plant down the street from the warehouse site on S. Washington. It seems like it depends on which neighborhood the store is…
  • The fire last night was kind of scary. I wish Quality Dairy had valued this historic building more, it was already boarded up and had small trees growing on the roof. I wonder if it will be re-built or just knocked down. I think it was the last buil…
  • I had seen the structures for the solar panels the other day, and I was kind of surprised how large they are. I had a car port size in mind. These panels will really be gathering a lot of energy, which is very cool for a parking lot.
  • It is so great to see so many things happening in Lansing. I am thinking that it's time for the city to think about pedestrians and linking the downtown districts together with the new housing and residential neighborhoods. I am thinking about the P…
  • The under the bridge lights look great. I hope they will include warm tones as well as the LED electric blue tones. Some nice amber/yellow tones might look nice on a cold winter night. I think the 496 overpass from Cedar to the west side bank of t…
