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…

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…

Very impressive. I like the retail level and the high buildings are set back so as not to loom over the street. I think theses building will fit in that space while creating a comfortable sidewalk level. It might be a bit shady on Albert Street in t…

Great! It will be great to see it finally happen and it looks like it will. Maybe they reversed the curse!

Now I see the monopoly houses on googlemaps. I think however large the new buildings are an improvment.

I agree that they should do it right, but when are they going to reach that point is the problem. I know that the two projects are different in terms of funding and other points, but it just seems strange that one development has been talked about a…

It is like two different sets of people are in charge, the slow people and the fast people, I like the fast people. Why can't they help the slow people up the street?

Why is this so difficult? Maybe there is some sort of curse on that building and it does not want to be torn down! Every time they get close to actually to doing it some kind of problem pops up. I really hope they can figure out how to get this deve…

Wow you guys are brave! It looks to me like there is enough room there to create a protected bike lane. Maybe some kind of bike lane overpass at the RR crossing or to take walkers and bikers over to May Street, go down May to Maryland and back to E.…

That is interesting, you guys may go that way more often, I usually avoid that area and take Mt. Hope out to Okemos. The stadium is the only building in E.L. you can see above the tree line from the 9th floor in my building in REOtown, you can just …

It is unfortunate that both Saginaw and Oakland serve as a state highway is some ways, because it changes the mission of that urban neighborhood street into a high speed one way highway it's propose to move traffic as fast as possible. I for instanc…

What a great plan! I think the town square or four corners is a good way to create an urban village within the greater city. I think Holmes and MLK would also be a good area to re-think. It does not have to be such a mess. There are neighborhoods fu…

I think a signal and bus stop right at the corner of the new drive with a crosswalk there may be a good option. Maybe it could be coordinated with the Penn. Ave lights so as to not stop traffic twice in one block. I hate to think someone visiting th…

It will put a rather tall building in the middle of mainly two story buildings, but the towers are set back so at the street level the would not loom over the sidewalk. I think anyone walking by the would find a similar feeling as today. I think tal…

I like that attitude, it is good to hear this newest project is already on the right track. If all three of these project are built there will be quite a view from the bridge heading west into East Lansing from Okemos.

When you name a place a "dive bar" it usually stops being a "dive bar". Hipsters are among the folks who are in the lead into neighborhoods like Old Town. So yes this brings about changes, but I don't think anyone wishes for the good old days in Nor…
