This is such a large area and it could be such a great green space with cool denser urban-style development, the plan I saw is not that. I look at what they built behind Eastern High and wonder why they built something that looks like a sub-urban an…

I am thinking as I may have said before, perhaps there could be a sort anti-blight ordinance that would require some sort of buffering of surface lots next to streets, landscaping decorative walls, no cyclone fences etc. if you want to have your lot…

I live in a building built in 1964 and across the street from one built in 1924 they both front the street our's with a fountain, and have parking in the rear. It is not impossible and I would think sighting buildings on the street front with a side…

I think that the family is doing the work with no schedule as many days go by with no one working there. It is kind of a small building so maybe they are building a secret underground complex for the "Deep State"!:} this has been going on for so lon…

Thanks for the information. It seems like there will be a lot of folks living on the south side of downtown in a year or two! I think it would be cool to create a linear park from Kalamazoo down to Malcome X along S. Washington. The street is so wid…

I could see the whole area north of Saginaw Street be designated a historic district. Offer home and building owners help to historically remodel and upgrade their buildings. I could see brick sidewalks and sidewalk level [modern] gas lamps. The inv…

I like that spot for a new City Hall location. It would fill in a large part of the "parking crater" that Lansing has become famous for! I also like the site I saw a while back, further to the south near Hillsdale. That spot would pull downtown all …

This guy talks like it's 1999! It would be great to have all this workout but I think Lansing would get along just fine without him. I would like to actually see the City Hall remain where it is and build a courthouse and jail over on Lenawee next t…

Is the container apartment court inside the warehouse on Hazel and Hosmer still happening? That would bring some people to the south.

The ugly is spilling over the Great Wall. The BWL is erecting huge line poles outside the walled area on S. Washington at Malcolm X. I had thought I heard that there were not going to be any huge line polls on S. Washington. Well, there is one there…

That is interesting news. This area may be moving in a good direction, Art's Pub has been a great success, the food is really good there and they are always busy. There is a great skyline view from their dining room. I could see this part of the tow…

I walked the River Trail over to Moores Park and noted that they have just begun working on the trail and had only removed the fence near the failed bank. Over at the park, the rehab of the school building is going along nicely, the park-side of the…

Park Avenue the street I grew up on looked just like this. By '75 almost all of the Elms were cut down. The "new" trees have grown into something like this but not nearly as grand. The town planted a new American Elm out in Provincetown to replace a…

To me, it looks like they took a picture in Grand Rapids and photo-shopped it to look slightly different just for the news conference, so maybe we can look forward to something better!

More drawings on the LSJ.com site today. They are OK but a little flash in the design would really make me happy.

Looks really great. This kind of gives me an idea what the BWL could do with the Eckert Plant.

That sounds cool, too cool for Pat G. I'm sure!

In San Fransico, there are supermarkets with the parking deck on the roof, they often have a facade that hides the parking area. It works pretty well.

In a sculptural sense, they are graceful if not gigantic, and I understand and applaud the reason they are there. I am hoping they do not go further north then Clare, where the landscape changes to "Up North".

Here on S.Washington, there is overnight parking allowed[I don't know if it is offical] on the 900 blocks. The street is very wide here so it causes no problems. I think that overnight parking could work on many streets. A resident only parking syst…
