  • This all seems haphazard in the way the city plans road repairs/repaving. Pine St. has about six different surface conditions from newly paved to very poor potholes across whole lanes. This seems crazy to me. The same thing on Mt. Hope, now with poo…
  • Now I understand this better, thanks for posting. It seems that its economics over interesting attractive design in most of these buildings. I may be mistaken but it looks like the sticks they are using for the EL highrises are metal, used it the sa…
  • Great news, that building is really an eyesore right now. I think it is great fun and interesting to watch these buildings, one by one, businesses and developers are finding new uses for buildings that seemed beyond usefulness. The southside is were…
  • I got a new bike for Christmas which I know jinxes the spring weather, but once it turns nice I will take a bike tour to see the campus, some of the features are in place I believe.
  • Yes, Pleasent Grove was a Lansing public elementary school k-6. A lot of kids I went to Dwight Rich JHS with came from Pleasent Grove. Students who lived in Church Hill Downs and that area went there. It was kind of the edge of town back than past H…
  • I have not been through the campus in a while, has this plan been built?
  • Another interesting article in The City Pulse talking about a study that is being funded for a new performing arts center somewhere downtown. It noted there is one developer all ready to jump in on this. It also noted a couple of PAC's that have bee…
  • This depiction looks good. I wonder why they put out those other drawings a while ago just to see if we were paying attention? I think these facades will catch and reflect the sunlight from the west. It looks like a good balance of brick and glass.
  • This seems misguided and unfair. Is another brewery what we need in our public market? Why would the city want one operation out for basically the same kind of business replacing the one business that made it in that building? I have to wonder about…
  • I look at the stacks every day they are right outside my window and I have never seen this angle, but the logo is fine with me! Just a little basic. I have been wondering if they could use the cement stacks as a core/base for a building around the s…
  • The new logo is OK, but when I first saw it I did not think "oh that is a reference to the 3 smokestacks", they are all the same height for one thing. There is a jewelry company named Effy that uses a very similar font and logo. To me, if you are go…
  • I can wait to see it!
  • I read Mayor Andy's speech and did not find any big new announcements, more like a review of what has already been announced. I did like his vision for the future looking at everything from the road up for improvements to make in our city. I was hop…
  • More green space is great news.
  • Condolences to those who lost in this fire. If the young man believed as Buddist do, he will be coming back soon and because of his good deeds in this life his next will be better than this.
  • I was not saying you are those things. I was using a "little" humor:} I know we have a different pages for ease of finding information that we are interested in. I really do appreciate all the posts here and the posters!
  • Thank you, I guess that is why I see the for sale signs in place for other spots that are going to be developed. I have been wondering about that. I promise to post on the right page!
  • Now that winter has begun in January I wonder about the city's snow plowing efforts. I often see one truck seemingly at random going down a street[ never ours! the one block of W. Hazel]. I also see the city plowing the sidewalks on the Aurelius Roa…
  • Thank you that is what I was thinking, but I wonder why they still have for sale signs if Urban Systems already owns this lot?
  • It may be just a change in a company name but I noticed new for sale signs on the REOtown sign lot at M.X. and S. Washington. There have been for sale signs there all along while they have been working on the hotel and apartments planned for this sp…
