I noticed that also, I heard that one of the resturaunts wasn't goind to officially open until haloween, it must have been The Firm. Never the less, it gives a hint at what downtown could be like. I think there needs to be at least 3 more places tha…

I was driving home last night, and went through downtown, down Michigan from Penn and then down Washington. I couldn't beleive how many people were down there, there was very little parking available. All the nightspots I could see inside of were bu…

I don't know who either are, I've checked the few sources I have and came up with nothing. The Boji's seem to prefer to work with Christman on their projects so in ll likelyhood it will be them, especially given it's a historic restoration. I'm assu…

I haven't gotten them to respond to any of my emails. But honestly, i don't care if their rude, they do a good job and are investing a lot of money into the city.

"You all will be very, very pleased." I hate that answer, so vague, but so promising. It will have sitting on the edge of my seat for awhile. I want to at least hear a small project announced here and there, it almost seems as if the city is awai…

My dad just informed me that the rennovation has been going on for some time. The third floor will be done before too long, then the state employees from the 5th floor will move to the third and work will likely begin on the lofts. Lmich, can you…

New article from the City Pulse on the School for the Blind deal, nothing really new except for that the school got financing and the project will be moving forward. Academy closes School for Blind deal

I never attem[ted to contact them before he was in charge. But he is about the only one I ever get a response from. I've never gotten a response from the mayors office, I only got one response from emailing council and I've never a gotten a response…

Thats what I was thinking. there is nothing noteworthy even possible on that block besides something new being built. And there are really only two potential locations for something new, either those two one story buildings or that lot. Thats why I'…

The lot I was talking about is a small lot kitty-corner to the Knapps building, it actually has a few parking places in it. About the Temple Club, thats really too bad. I think the club had a lot more potential and since the owner has been trying…

After rereading the LSJ story about the Firm, I decided to look into Bob Green's (the PSD director) commments: "There are other projects in the works for the 200 South Washington block that will just add to the mix.", and "Green expects to make an a…

Good news for the office market in downtown Lansing, the vacancy rate at the beginning of 2006 was only 8.6%, or 188,880 sq ft of 2,194,772 sq ft. Bob Tresize said that CBRE JUST completed a new report, so I emailed them about it and I hope to get a…

This sound a bit more reliable than the last dates we heard. Can you use your contact with him to find out what kind of structure this will be? From the cost and size (especially with the second floor office space) I would think it will be steel, bu…

I definately wouldn't consider the project to be delayed at all. It is still part of the first wave of development, which requires tax credits and tricky financing, that all takes time. This project has moved from concept to solid proposal simply aw…

I didn't post anything like that, in fact I don't remember hearing anything like that. I guess I will have to go reread that forum.
-
What I'd really like to know is when the project will start, and what it will look like. Even if they could just say in what general style this will be in that would be nice.

I probably won't be able to get out to take pictures until Saturday or sunday, weather permitting. Then I will got through the usual list of projects I do, including University Center, Michigan Resturaunt Association building (if anything changes), …

Looks good, I think Sparrow actually has two more floors to go though.

Well maybe given the ridiculous prices of student housing around their it's actually feasable... BTW I just found a rendering of the proposed Kresge Art Museum:
