  • It was the underground parking that caught my eye, to be specific two floors of underground parking. I almost doubt that will really happen, to build two floors of underground parking is extremely expensive, the only other place in Lansing that has …
  • I'll be glad to see a new photo tour, I drive through downtown at least twice a week now that I have classes at LCC's downtown campus, but somehow seeing photos makes the development seem that much more real and impressive, if that makes any sense.
  • Would you consider that area to be "urban" and would you expect a building like the one described above to be built with an urban design given the area?
  • A new project listed on the Planning commission's agenda from October 11th: Site Plan: An application from Joseph Goodsir for the properties at 237, 242 and 243 Louis Street to remove the existing multiple family structures and build a new 3-stor…
  • A good LSJ story about two new downtown resturaunts, of which both sound really nice and a step in the right direction: New downtown eateries ready to serve up tapas, dancing, pool The PSD director made an interesting comment also: "There are oth…
  • I would still like to see what those Rain Gardens will look like. Have seen any renderings or anything? EDIT: I was just looking over bidclerk.com and there are some bids out for some Lansing area projects: The Hollister Building, it says pro…
  • I just noticed the lighting a couple days ago, Thursday, I think.
  • I'm curious to see what this will look like, $2.1 million is an awful lot for an 8,000 sq ft building.

  • It's a really, really dumb business move to advertise a website before it is up and running. Many people will not check on it again once they see it isn't up. They should waited to post the sign with the site until it was working, better yet they sh…
  • I really hate to excited about this, so I'll stay cautiously optomistic for now. Keep us posted.
  • The Property Info page isn't working for me either. On the subject of your other post, I definately agree. I was expecting at least some project announcements to come about by now, we're still waiting on the MSP HQ announcement, waiting to here m…
  • I know, its the only REALLY bad looking area of Lansing, I mean there are plenty of others that look rough but that stretch of kzoo looks horrible, almost like being in Detroit or Flint.
  • The steel has been finished for the Michigan Resturaunt Association Building. Also, soemthing to watch for in future council meetings (its only listed under letters to the Mayor this week): "Brownfield Plan #29, Kalamazoo Cold Storage Facility…

  • The Delta Township Plant, when you are going down I-96 you will see a large piece of land being graded and small outbuildings going up just south of the plant. If you want a closer look, go down Davis Hwy, the northern end of the site borders it, yo…

  • GM doesn't seem to impressed with building cars in mexico, they already have plants there, yet they continue to build plants in the US. The only thing I can tjhink of is that Mexican plants must not be as profitable and/or are not producing quality …
