  • Yeah, I was trying to be nice with the "borderline" part
  • That's welcome news. The airport authority now says on their website that they expect the new master plan to be released in early 2025 so perhaps we'll get some idea as to the scale and expected cost of a new terminal then. https://www.flylansing.c…
  • I'm still not excited about the plan, even less so after learning that the city is only planning on taking up the lower 4 floors and there's basically no chance of acquiring the lot next door. I am really, really hoping the push to simply restore an…
  • That's certainly a disappointment, I don't like the idea of having a 50'+ greenspace in the ROW that doesn't do anyone much good and will almost certainly end up poorly maintained. It doesn't make sense.
  • What I had a problem with today didn't seem related to his political leanings but absolutely gives credence to your theory on intelligence. Check it out beginning about 1:55:00
  • I don't see any watermarks on any of the renderings or mention of the architects or companies involved. From the look of the buildings I wouldn't be at all surprised if they are from different architects, they're very different designs. I still wish…
  • City Pulse has an article on this project. They're somewhat critical of what they say is a change in workforce housing from all 450 units to 150 units. I don't remember them saying in any of the articles that all of the housing would be workforce, I…

  • Nah, it look like the elevation marks are cut off on the right of that floor profile view. 25 floors with a 30' first floor should make for the tallest building in the city by a good margin.
  • Oh wow, a lot better. I'm going to get some of those renderings uploaded to the Development Rundown thread. The Tower on the Grand is vastly improved. I could almost get over what's shown as far as the ramp goes. The look of everything is nice in…
  • Looking at the language in the City Council's acceptance of the housing grant money I'm confused. It makes it sounds like the city has a ton of leeway in how they could spend the money, from saying it could be used in emergencies to saying it can be…
  • I continue to wish they'd restore Washtenaw St or at least reserve it for a pedestrian ROW, there's no reason the 7 block property should be developed as a monolithic building. I'm not sure if the newly created parcels adjacent to here will be deep …
  • Apparently the city is getting ready to remove the islands on MLK between Ionia and Lenawee and turning the street into 5 lanes. Did I miss this? Has it been discussed here? The City Pulse article isn't very clear on what this will actually look lik…
