Yeah, I'd agree that the height and scale of the buildings is good. Now just to wait for the official announcement to see just how vague and far off this project is.

I've always really wanted to see that warehouse on Shiawassee turned into lofts, but it's still great to see it get some attention. I'm really interested to see what this Lake Trust redevelopment is. I can't really imagine any situation in which …

That's certainly good to hear. I was wondering how long it'd take to see work start on that, I'll have to try to get by there soon.

This is some more good news for Michigan Ave. I wonder what their plan is exactly though, it says that they will spend $1.6 million to redevelop the site and build a temporary terminal, then they will seek a development partner to build a hotel/offi…

I noticed a few days ago when I was by the Penfil Apartments that they had finished rebuilding the collapsed wall and had started putting in windows. I was a bit worried that they weren't going to follow through on the renovation or that they would …

I don't really like that the entrance will go on one of the less visible sides of the building but I guess there must be some logic to it. I checked the MSU construction projects page for the first time in awhile and found that several projects h…

I really like the proposed new entrance, any idea what side of Munn it will go on?

I see where he's coming from, the area is headed in a good direction and in the end Midtown will probable be somewhat detrimental to the immediate area. The design is simply a cheap imitation of some colorful buildings the developer saw in their tra…

Seems like an odd situation to come back and ask for more money after everything's been approved and construction has already begun.

It was good to put a few faces with the names. After talking about Eastern Market I was reminded of how I found out about it. There's a pretty good show that comes on PBS Detroit called Under the Radar Michigan. It's a show where a guy travels ar…

After thinking about it for a long time, I finally started working on a SketchUp model of my imagined redevelopment of the buildings at Mt Hope and Washington about two months ago. As of now I'm about half done with the exteriors, but I'm pretty hap…

Just curious if anyone besides me, Jared and J will be there? Also, I guess it's worth confirming that at least the three of us still plan on showing up.

I vaguely remember reading that now, it looks like it ended up getting delayed by about a year.

There's a banner up at the building on the northeast corner of Grand River and Kedzie advertising a new building they're calling "The Element 903." It says units will be available fall 2015. The Element 903

I thought I remember the Land Bank sending out a request for proposals, I wonder what happened with that?
-
My initial thought on this was that I hoped they wouldn't do suburban style housing. I didn't even see those comments about ground floor retail/office space, which is very good to hear. I continue to be impressed by MSU's design decisions around cam…

It should work fine for me.

Finally something in that space, now to see if it will succeed...

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 …
