AF breaking ground hopefully will push things along faster for Capitol Club than if it had stalled. That coupled with MarketPlace going through, hopefully there is some synergy that will move Capitol Club along. I also am holding out hope that with …

Does anyone know that in the areas around the CSO construction like around Michigan Ave. and Grand Ave. (such as seen in some of these pictures) if the black asphalt put in between the streets and the sidewalk is temporary or permanent? Are they pla…

Wow, that sounds pretty cool...I hadn't heard any rumors or talk about this before. Anyone know what the plans are for the gas station on Larch next to the Stadium District? The store portion is completely gutted and the exterior is down to plywoo…

http://www.lansingstatejournal.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20080919/NEWS01/809190356&referrer=FRONTPAGECAROUSEL LSJ article states this project is ahead of schedule...they hope to have the exterior done by winter and then start on interior…

It's not quibbling, your point is a good one and I agree with the principle. I think you could raise fares a fair amount before you would actually start deterring people, but you are going to eventually start pricing people out which will then mean …

$2 was just a totally random number I through out, not based on anything so even that might not prevent cuts. I suggested a fare increase ONLY as an option if the the two choices were that or the drastic cuts. Although it would hurt the lower income…

I agree hood. I think that if it really comes down to the millage failing, and without it they truly cannot afford not to make that deep of cuts, then they might as well raise fares to $2 or something. I think a significant fare increase would be le…

Menna's joint on 200 block of Washington Sq. next to Brannigan Brother's seems to have had a bit of interior work done. There were people in there today and lights on tonight when I came home. They were supposed to have opened by mid-July and I have…

The pamphlet that is distributed on CATA buses states the state has cut funding from 50% to 30%. That obviously doesn't help things...the bus driver tonight said that some routes will be cut/decreased frequency, all routes will be cut after 6pm and …

Yeah, I would be opposed to fare increases unless absolutely necessary. Mass transit systems to my knowledge RARELY cover expenses with fare. Plus, as I already noted in my previous post, although people like myself could easily afford a $1/ride hik…

I hope so LMich...for Lansing's interest as well as my own selfish interests. For me, I ride the 14 to work everyday; and for Lansing, I think to have a thriving urban city with a diverse/international population which adds to the flavor of a city y…

http://npaper-wehaa.com/citypulse;see-zxY990BzmmV9e0x0#page-1;c-66464 New website for City Pulse which is interesting, but the link should still work. Supposed to see "dirt moving by the end of the year." 24 more condos than predicted (intersting s…

Yesterday I noticed a ~7 foot tall scaffolding is set-up on the sidewalk on Capitol running in front of the Boji Tower the entire length of the building and wrapping around the corner a little onto Allegan. No signs or anything...looks like the same…

A story about the completed $1.46 million expansion Hawk Island to Maguire Park. It also mentions the planned $1.9 million connection between Potter Park Zoo and Scott Woods Park that supposedly will be finished by the end of the year (it was a litt…

Unless they want to put a 30 story building in downtown Lansing! Seriously though, I'll add to the chorus that MSU should slow the sprawl for a while and focus on concentrating their campus as it is.
-
Didn't they originally say they were planning on 12 floors and then there was an article saying that because it was going so well they were jumping to 18 floors? Was that just BS trying to stir excitement, have things changed that drastically, or so…

http://capitalgainsmedia.com/devnews/msulife0233.aspx $7 million gift for nursing school expansion. Good to see MSU grow and building new things in general, but especially good to be building in a field like nursing that capitalizes on a strong d…

I like that alot better!!! I heard (just gossip, nothing credible) that they have to sell 50% of the units before they can break ground...does that sound right?

Does anyone on here have Magic Johnson's e-mail? You should see if he's interested. I heard that he tried an idea for the Ottawa Street power station a few years back...maybe he would throw out some money for the "Magic Johnson Performing Arts Cente…

Come fall of 2010, imagine what Lansing is going to look like. I may be a little off, but if I remember correctly, MarketPlace, Capitol Club Tower, the Lenewee building and possibly AF headquarters and BallPark North with be done or far along in con…
