I can't seem to get the new imagery to show up on the desktop Google Maps, but the imagery on mobile Maps is at most a month or two old. It shows Marketplace completed, the Outfield well under construction and shows the Lansing Brewery property alre…

Talking about aerials, the Google satellite images were updated within the past month or two, if you use the classic desktop version or the mobile version of maps you can check it out.

...And the Lansing Brewing Company continues to impress. Any idea when they'll be opening?

The demand for quality student housing near campus is incredible, however since most students aren't considered permanent residents it doesn't do much for population figures. Developments like this one are just scratching the surface of the demand t…

It looks very art deco, should be nice.

Yeah, that bridge sucks, on the plus side it's practically invisible from the road. The Kalamazoo St bridge isn't much better, it's in decent shape but is the standard railing and the way it arches it really separates the two sides of the river. …

That sounds pretty nice, I'm interested to see how it turns out. This is one more piece of the Michigan Ave puzzle sliding into place.

The auction was delayed until at least next Thursday: Park District auction starts, stops, to be continued Even though this auction doesn't include the old Citizens Bank building, I'm still glad to see some of the parcels move out of the control …

I have absolutely no idea how Township residents would react to an annexation attempt by Lansing. I know they'd have a local income tax and probably higher property taxes to deal with, the City would have to make a good case as to why it's worth it.…

When I first saw the headline I was worried this was regarding Red Cedar: Lansing claims Lansing Twp. intentionally blocking development' Lansing is saying that Lansing Township imposed a rezoning moratorium specifically to hinder the redevelopme…

I was by there earlier today and I'm a little disappointed that they tore down the older two floor building on Shiawassee, other than that I'm glad to see all the other buildings go, even that building won't be missed much. Besides, I know that for …

This park really is sort of an embarrassment as it sits, it's essentially a grassy field with a few dilapidated structures and paths. I've always imagined Riverfront being redesigned in a similar spirit to Millennium Park in Chicago. Whatever they d…

I remember those ramps, but I think they were gone by the time I drove myself. They were pretty ridiculous.

I thought I remembered something like that but I couldn't find anything when I looked. Anyways, it's nice to see that gas station come down, especially to be replaced by a new building.

I'll believe it when I see it. Did the development ever pass this step as Strathmore?
-
Yeah, ultimately I think all of Lansing Township should be dissolved, but paring the Township down to Eastwood and their western core would be a good and sensible start.
-
I don't know how it will happen, but Lansing Township will eventually be annexed by Lansing. It has to happen for the sake of the region, I think it'd be better for most Township residents over the long run also. I could see the broken up eastern po…

I'm not surprised at all to see something get built here. What would be surprising is if it turns out to be anything more than another small strip mall or fast food restaurant. I'd love to see this area move towards mixed use buildings.

The airport is in a sad state now, it looked like things may turn around but apparently that isn't happening. It doesn't help that Capitol City's terminal is embarrassing compared to almost any other major airport in Michigan and North Grand River i…

I found a blog detailing some Lansing history, it seems to have recent posts so look for updates: Lost Lansing This hasn't been mentioned before, has it?
