There is some sort of renovation going on at the former bank? building next to the tracks on the north side of Grand River in Old Town. Does anyone know what might be going in there. It is a very nice building. There also renovation going on in one …

The building at E Barnes and S Washington is going to be a retail tile store according to the permits posted in the window. Not real exciting but it is good to see that building is going to be occupied. Farther down Washington the Reach Art Center h…

Great news! The paving projects are really starting pick up. North on 127 there is new pavement between Alma and Mt Pleasant so new it is still shinny! They have been doing some real patching on W. Barnes Ave. and some on Kalamazoo as well.

Okemos "Village" within greater Meridian is what they should call it, maybe place making would help. They could fill in all the empty spaces with smaller buildings that could enhance and recreate the village downtown that was once there. As soon as …

Thanks for the information about the Holmes Street School. Sad to hear that something was started but not completed. I wonder why they have just abandoned a very nice building. I am going to note the broken windows on seeclickfix.com There are some…

I did not see the new widows yet, the whole complex looks much better. They painted the buildings next door a nice green. I think that may have been the first paint job there in 30 years. I wonder if they are going to paint or rehad the yellowish co…

It looks like 563 Cherry Street is a drop in center for the Justice in Mental Health organization. I thought I saw the school name over the door, I will take a closer look. Parking lots, why so many? Is there ever a time when these lots are full tod…

Swales! I never have heard that term before! I guess that is what I have been calling rain gardens, like along Michigan Ave. I am really looking forward to seeing this project built. It will be very interesting to see how the Red Cedar will look and…

I live over in REOtown and I often travel through Cherry Hill. It is great to see that someone is remodeling these buildings. It is a nice downtown neighborhood, I hope someone will also redevelop the big houses that are for sale up the street. They…

Very Big! This sure will fill up those spaces. I am hoping this is the plan the E.L. folks have been waiting for. I am happy the parking structure is behind the hotel not part of it. The structure seems to have a finished facade, that helps too. I w…

What I thought what was going to happen is that the whole parking area would be rebuilt in a way that collects the drain water and that would be the water running through these filtering features. I mean I hope that's the plan. It seems like I saw a…

When I look at googlemaps I can see there could be a bike/pedestrian path to Frandor crossing the green space behind Eastern and LCC HS hooking up with one of the streets like Vine St over to Frandor. It would be a route bike commuters would more li…

Yes include Frandor! I would hope that including Frandor on the BRT route would be the thing they need to get the whole parking area reconfigured and the plan for the new drain will be put into place. Most of Frandor is very popular and I think it …

Oh yeah! thank you so much I would have never come up with that name! My old brain was trying to put Lansing in there some where.

The building that they are working on is on the east side of Washington at the north side of Barnes Ave. There is nothing going on in the former pool hall. I wish there was. I have heard a lot about The Cadillac Room. What was is a bar, or a functi…

Seems like the BWL listens to tiny minorities of people,[ the people who said why didn't you cut more] and is a bit thin skinned when it comes to criticism of their actions. I don't see any balance in most of these cuts. Over at the Main Street Apar…

The Speedwagon is OK for fast food, lotto, and beer and snacks. I'll take another look at the building across the street,see if I can tell what's going on there.

I took the walk towards Potter park on the river trail Sunday. I was interested to see the progress on the "old Knapp's warehouse", down by the Red Cedar. They gutted and cleaned the whole area, and are starting to put in some nice looking windows a…

I think that is correct, in the sense of a project being cut down from it's original plan because of interference and bean counting of some sort. Which is something that seems to happen to every project in Lansing.The river front park was to at one …

Oh I know that MSU is building near the campus and I was thinking of just some departments of city hall in an annex thus freeing up space in the old building., I was just dreaming of what I would do if I was "in charge"! Good luck with school, we ne…
