Good point, green parking lots and more trees are always better. I do like how it does not look like "senior housing".

The Mayor must think that public input impedes progress. He is the one person who know's what is best for Lansing.

It seems like they are really pushing the City Hall sale and redevelopment. I saw those drawings again on the LSJ site. I think they were saying these are only ideas of what might go in there. I am glad about that because the drawings are really bad…

I'm not sure but I think they put that facade up during the 70's barn wood craze. You can see some nice brick work around the overhead door area. I could see a green grocer and other grocery food vendors at the front, to provide a colorful entry. Th…

I always liked seeing the Dart name and Mason address on boxes all those years I lived out in Mass.. I agree I would like to see them phase out the Styrofoam. Sorry, but again out east, many places have already stopped using Styrofoam, using paper a…

This looks pretty good, a nice urban look.

That will be good to see a building there.

Thank you for posting the photo of my childhood home. At times there were nine family members living in that house with one bathroom that only had a bathtub no shower. I had just turned eight years old and that was my new birthday bike. Now I'm afra…

I found my house on Park Ave, and I think I am in the photo standing in the front yard! I don't know how to link it but the number is 3301 20 408 051-1 if you have any interest in seeing me and my bike in 1963, it is a bit out of focus. I think it s…

Could someone post links to the old house pictures of Park Avenue near Quentin Park, I would love to see the old elm trees on my street. Also maybe a good poster could post some of the neighborhood of Cherry Hill and the area that was destroyed for …

I am hoping that the people redeveloping the "REO Marketplace" put some effort into place making for that building. Some kind of feeling that this is not just a big warehouse, but a fun and interesting destination. They really failed to do that at t…

The local radio news reporting about the SkyVue opening yesterday also reported that the developers of the Red Cedar Renaissance development across the street where "in town" and we should look forward to a big announcement very soon. That sounds ki…

It amazing to see how much better a neighborhood can look with a nicely paved street.

The City Pulse has a letter from the Mayor basically saying that the City Hall building is a dump not worth saving. Last week they had these depictions of what might replace the current building. The former Mayor was kind of saying the same thing, t…

This development looks really great. It will be nice to see the area full of people, and activity. I really like the sculptures, do they light up at night?
-
This will be great to have in the neighborhood adding to the foot traffic and bringing people to the other REOtown businesses. I like how REOtown is different than Old Town, in the feel of REOtown is Midwestern a wide sunny street with low rise bric…

This is a nicely designed building for a city service. I wonder how did Lansing do this back in the 50's. I can't believe that the feds and the state gave the city so much more money that they could design and build expensive stylish modern building…

Thanks for the information. It is good to know they are serious about the upkeep of the Capitol. I noticed an story about the old warehouse next to 496 on Hosmer Street. Neogen has been the company rehabilitating that building since last winter. …

I have been wondering about the project going on at the south entrance to the Capitol Building. I am not sure that I have heard what is going on there. I know they were talking about how much repair the building needs, is this the beginning of that …

City Hall looks like a lot of our parks in Lansing, as in why did they stop taking care of it? It is a great example of Mid-century International Style and is clad in sandstone and marble. The plaza in front which looks really bad right now was mean…
