Wow OK! I live in a country that hates me and my family, white straight frat boys were yelling "let's go Brandon" to wake me up to the place I really live last night at 2 am. I used to live in a place although a small village not always peaceful but…

Happy Election Day! We made it! It is my hope that we can all turn our attention to many other subjects at least that is what I plan on doing, may good prevail! Yesterday I walked by the new International Student Center and saw some of the very int…

Maybe there are really two Gary Grangers! There was no school choice in those days, you went to the school in the district where you lived, so maybe his family had a house out in Holt. Does Gary G own vacant rundown buildings down there as well? I t…

Well, it could be that there is another Gary Granger who went to Holt, but I remember him at least going to Dwight Rich and I passed his family's home on the corner of Colonial Plaza and Pleasent Grove every day on the way to school, and I also reme…

I have a "kind of funny" story about Gary Granger, Imo! I signed up to attend my 50th Sexton High class reunion late, when I got there, they gave out name tags, I guess Gary G was a late no show, so they used his name tag to make mine [another Gary]…

I have been wondering what is holding up the repaving of E. Michigan by the Red Cedar development. All the water works are flowing, and it would seem all work except for the paving has been done. Does the Red Cedar development have a place name?

I am a bit confused! Are you talking about 116 W Ottawa? Also is the building depicted at Walnut and Ottawa still an apartment building? The new drawings are quite a relief, the nighttime lighting will add a unique building to our skyline. OK let ge…

I read an interesting opinion ed. in the City Pulse about saving Eastern. I was surprised to read that the architects for Eastern were the same who designed the Michigan Union and the MSU Union.

Thanks for the information. It looks like a terrible plan. I wonder what they need this building for. I have always disliked the placement of the street and the church. These days they could close one side and still have no traffic problems. It was …

I watched an interesting video on YouTube about current life in Detroit. The commentator was interested in Detroit's resurgence and how they are becoming a better city with its current 700,000 plus population and leaving behind the old ideas and per…

I remember the downtown library was renovated just a couple of years ago, perhaps they did not update the building's infrastructure. This is perhaps the most "Lansing" building still standing and being used for its original purpose. Lansing's Kennet…

Thanks I did not pay attention to the subscription price, and I think this maybe too much for what I get from the LSJ.

Let's talk to Ervin Johnson, "The Magic Ovation" !

I know that in many places they have architectural standard boards that must be followed in order to get a permit, such boards would not have to be doctorial but might work with the developer to come up with a decent design for the same price. Plus,…

Is Dayton wealthier than Lansing? That is quite impressive.

I lived in a small town where driving around was not easy, many folks who visited hotels, guesthouses and rented had no cars. One way that people got around was pedicabs. They were human powered but newer models have electric motors too. The pedicab…

Thank Goodness they have come up with a new contemporary design and marketing concept. "The O"!

I have noticed that retail space in my building right in downtown East Lansing has not been fully leased out in the building built in 2019, as well as the newer buildings along Michigan Avenue all have never rented retail space. I often think if lan…

Urban density with some human comfort is a very good for true urban "village" neighborhoods. In my crazy dreams I could see a "canal district" on the northwest side next to the river, a couple of u-shaped cannels with some dense housing and retail,…

I thought that was an interesting story, the false story was kind of a negative view of our city's founding, I am happy to hear that the folks who moved here were not the victims of some sort of scam. When I walk through some of the woods and parks …
