Looking at the webcam, they are moving along pretty quickly.

The crane and some steel is now onsite, so I would expect to this take shape pretty quickly this week and next week.

I never di get a picture of the sign at Ingham, but at some point, when I have time and the weather is decent, I would like to get out and get more pictures, of Ingham and other projects. As for the coffee shops, I'm not sure how much good it wou…

I seen the name of that coffee shop at the Ranney Building, Cornerstone Coffee. A guy who lives across the street from me is the owner of it, it's a new chain. The first one was in Holt and opened a year ago or so, he is now selling franchises and s…

I will have to dig through some of the city council meeting agendas, but I'm sure I can find it.

There was some sort of mixed use redevolopment proposed on abbot with some rowhouses and stuff I think, is this anywhere near that, or could it be the same thing?

westvillagecondos.net is up and running now, per Palapinga at urbanplanet. I'm dissapointed with the design compard with old one, however it will still be nice to see a higher quality rendering to be sure.

I wasn't even aware that the ground floor was being marketed as retail, in the property listing it was only advertising office space.

I don't think there is any hope to fix up Kalamazoo in the near future, maybe this area being so close to downtown, but once you get further East through the neighborhoods it would be too difficult. Many cities withe successful downtowns have rough …

Jared, can you update the thumbnail for the Hollister Building project page? I already updated the rendering on the page itself.

I was just by the building this morning and they tore down whatever was left of the front facade. As far as I'm concerned there is nothing left of the building worth trying to save. Maybe, now that Kalamazoo from Larch to the RR tracks is a virtuall…

WLNS reported that firefighters were demolishing some of the sidewalls in an effort to save what parts of the building they can. If they can save the facade, keeping it in a repairable state, I'de be happy. It turns out the owner of ACD.net is the o…

Thats really too bad, I mean REALLY too bad. Even in this building's severely dilapidated state it could have been nice, and this building was one of the few remaining decent sized warehouse/industrial buildings left in Lansing. Most of the others h…

The old cold storage warehouse has had a mjaor fire this morning, it was proposed to be rennovated into an artist colony: Warehouse fire shuts down Kalamazoo Street There is no word yet on how extensive the damage is, however, I would think that…

I like it too, the real test will be how good they can get the existing brick and cornice to look and if they can even out the facade where it sags.

I doubt any memorial would look right in front of city hall, unless it had the look of a modern sculpture. I think one of the downtown parks would be a better fit, perhaps Riverfront park, definately not Durant or Ruetter park though, as they are we…

Thats what I thought when I first seen them digging, but when I looked at the size and depth of the hole it didn't seem to make much sense. Especially given the size, the hole exxtends from roughly as far back as the building is supposed to go nearl…
-
They are now excavating on the Larch side of the site. It looks like they may dig a hole the size of the entire building footprint, it appears they are going pretty deep too, maybe 15-20 feet. Has anyone heard if there will be a basement or undergro…

I don't know how they can afford to sell three floor condos in the $200's, three floor condos would be considered pretty high-end, I would expect them to be $400k+.
-
Thats one think thats for sure, in my emails to John Truscott he hints that there are several tenants lined up. I can't wait to see what the building will look like.
