I saw the listing for the building on CPIX a couple weeks ago but didn't think much of it. I'd never been there, but they always looked pretty busy to me so it's a little surprising to see that they closed.

I saw that and laughed a little. I wonder what he was thinking? The top three floors of this building have sort of grown on me though. It doesn't really look right at a squat three floors, but at six or more floors, with a redesigned base and no …

I would try to make it, but the only time I could make it would be Saturday, Sunday or Monday evenings/nights. No need to switch times/dates for me though unless it would be better for others also.

After looking at the map a bit I'm thinking a W Michigan to Creyts To Millitt to Canal to W Michigan route would be about perfect. It would be able to right in front of most of the factories and warehouses in that area. I think a route like that wou…

It's good to see CATA making its way into Eaton County, I guess we'll have to see where it leads. If CATA was to have free reign to make routes in Eaton County, where would they go? Saginaw is the obvious route, it's just a question of how far i…

I'm through there pretty regularly and it's amazing how different it is from two years ago, or even last year. Here's to hoping that all this new space gets leased quickly so we can see this trend continue. On the note of things being seen drivin…

I like the Caddis building also, I would be content to see some of the infill on Michigan Ave look like that. I think I'll hold my judgement on the Trowbridge redevelopment until I see it in person, I'm sure it will be a considerable improvement ove…

I pulled a few renderings of of CPIX: A proposed building for the SW corner of Coolidge and Lake Lansing, next to the new PNC bank. Lake Lansing Center A few renderings of the Trowbridge Village redevelopment (a mixed use building, office bu…

I was really hoping for those colored panels to end up being tile or something, whatever they ended up being looks cheap. Midtown in particular looks as if it were built of scrap materials, I don't understand why Gillespie's doing such cheap stuff. …

I was poking around Gillespie Group's page and found a listing of their properties, the most noteworthy probably being 600 E Michigan It'd be lovely to see a building that looks like that go such a prominent corner, huh? Even with a spectacul…

The stamping plant is kind of an odd shape, it's good to know where to expect to see it at though. I'd hate to see any vertical additions to Eastern, but I would love to see apartments made out of it. I think it's actually a pretty feasible proje…

It looks like he does still own the properties, maybe. The documents say that the LLC proposing these buildings owns City Center II LLC, so I assume that means Chappelle is behind all this. He could of also sold City Center II LLC or brought in part…

There's never been much doubt that Sparrow wants Eastern and if it goes up for sale I'm certain they'll jump on it. I'd like to see Eastern remain a high school, but I'm mainly concerned with the building being saved along with the field house. That…

Along with considering the new Park District plan the EL planning commission will consider a developers plan to tear down the Citizens Bank building to construct 10 floor hotel/apartment/retail building and to raze the Evergreen Arms Apartments for …

I thought that Sparrow did buy Bingham. I've been wondering where the stamping plant will go also. I had seen them doing concrete work just to the east of MLK, so I had assumed it was going there, but that looks like it was just to expand the par…
-
What school are you talking about them wanting to get? I still want to believe that even if they do close Eastern people won't let it be tore down by Sparrow or anyone else. I have very little faith in the LSD in general though, I really don't un…

It seems odd for them to have such a small lot isolated from the rest of their properties, it looks to only have about 20 spaces. If they don't acquire that Goodyear building I can't imagine they'll find much reason to hold onto it. I'm just hopi…
-
The 28th was the public hearing and it was up for passage on Monday. In the packet, Public Services noted that any development will require a site plan review. Your talking about the lot next to the Goodyear building? If so, I"m willing to bet th…

I've noticed the fencing and containers, but I assumed they were working on the Meijer or getting ready to. Have you seen if they're actually building something there?

It almost seems that this is a case of the developer adding in a minimal amount of first floor commercial space just to appease the city. The fact that 3/4 of the buildings first floor is parking is bad, but that they're orienting the commercial spa…
