Why would the Mayor feel he has to keep plans for City Market secret? They often seem eager to announce plans for projects that never get off paper, what is different about this situation? Expanded parkland sounds right to me perhaps with concession…

How nice it could look if they built new streets and sidewalks here as well.

The LSJ.com wrote today about a sculpture to be placed in the downtown rotary at Michigan and Washington. They are offering 100k! to the artist, they pick as the winner of a design competition. The artist must fund their sculpture with that money an…

It is interesting to see that mother nature is forcing the state to make road repairs! Maybe she can buckle up the whole of 496 it might be the only way they will ever repave what I think is a rather dangerous and poorly maintained freeway.

Seems like the wall is about finished and the rigging inside looks like a supersized mad scientist's laboratory. A lot of the structure is visible above the wall, perhaps when they plant the trees that will help in the summer anyway. I guess it cou…

The LSJ has an article about the downtown to Frandor bike path today. It sounds like it is going to be another great way to bike around Lansing.

I noticed work being done on the Federal/PO Building downtown. I have always thought the yellow stone facade of that building was unique and interestingly different from the sandstone of the Capitol Building. The blocks of stone they have down on th…

I'm taking, Seymour, and Pine, to from Old Town to REOtown for a smooth ride! In Old Town, once you get past N. Washington the streets in every direction are very bad. It is confusing where Grand River meets Grand River and also turns into Willow an…

That has been a dumpy little store for at least 40 years, it must have been a filling station at one time. There was once a really great little supermarket at Kalamazoo and Logan/MLK which was very busy all the time. It will be good to have a market…

I could see modern brick pavement on N. Washington. Capitol Ave is a real moonscape as well. I wonder how they chose, I would start with the block the Capitol is on and move out in ever larger squares from there. I like that the plan includes Ceasar…

It is really nice, I like how the tall part of the building is set back not looming over the street. I think that walking down G.R. will feel very similar to the way it was.

I meant "worst streets" that are getting worse!:} Also I wonder why they left a few blocks out of the repaving of Pine Street?
-
I noticed that they are going to repave Seymour Street! This is good news as that street is one of the many worse streets in Lansing. I was wondering if the repaving plans had increased above earlier plans do to added funds by the state?

Have they come out with any new and better depictions of the Waverly golf course development? The one I saw was not very detailed.
-
I think it would be a good idea to drive by and see what a mess it is.

I do not know if it was the BWL but there are lines on that side of the street. I thought the big power poles along Old Lansing Road going down to the Mt. Hope Highway were part of this project and that was the path going out to Canal Road. I think …

I am sorry that I must report another tree rant. This one is really extra awful, the BWL made a utility cut on all the trees on the west side of Waverly Road next to the cemetery just by the Grand River bridge. That has really kind of desecrated the…

I am really relieved about this development, they were so good about keeping it secret. I am really surprised to see the condition of the inside as there is still broken glass on the sidewalk outside broke out during the fire a while back. The reh…

Yes, it looks nice and light, I think this color will reflect the skylight and look very bright on a sunny day. I can not wait to see it in 3-D!

I agree the houses they are going to tear down are much nicer than those ugly townhouses. They look like a public housing development, maybe not that nice.
