There is continued work on the Capitol Club parking garage, it is starting to look nice...was rennovating the parking garage a contractual requirement for buying it? If it was, not too exciting...if it wasn't, then it's a good sign that Elliot is st…

The new City Market steel structure is going vertical. http://www.lansingstatejournal.com/article/20090903/NEWS01/309030012&referrer=FRONTPAGECAROUSEL

Today the fronts are off of Kelly's and the storefront next to Decker's and people are moving stuff into the new place. It looks like Kelly's is finally moving.

Hood, I agree that this could be a REALLY cool thing. But a huge part of it's success will depend on how well it is maintained and that I think is going to be questionable. Maybe Lansing Gateway would pick up again and then that area really could ta…

I think it's a great idea, but I'm also skeptical about the location. If this was put in place of the gas station to the east of the Stadium District and on the land south of that gas station or somewhere similar I think it would work. Maybe if they…

They finally started the streetscaping on Grand Ave. They're removing the asphalt infill no the sidewalks and filling with the red bricks and concrete, I haven't seen any rain gardens or the "fancy" light poles yet, but they're still in the first st…

Part of the plaster (or whatever plaster type of material they used) and bricks fell of the building and damaged some parked cars there a few months ago (there was an article about it). They tore the rest of it off and are re-doing it.

Also, the field next to LCC's University Center at Capitol and Genesee is tore up, construction equipment on site...are they underway for building their new parking ramp? There was a small story a while back that Joel Ferguson might buy the North …

One of the store fronts on Washtenaw immediately next to the Knapps building has major internal construction. Currently, the sidewalk in front of the space is fenced off and the sidewalk is torn up down to the dirt. Not sure what's going on in there.

I would be carefull citing the +400-foot tower in GR as a sucess. My mother is in the GR tv news area and made a comment a couple weeks ago that there was a story on TV13 that the tower is virtually empty and is struggling severely. From my understa…

A couple updates on things: 1. The retail spot on Washington Sq. 200 block next to Decker's that's had green painted plywood over the windows seems to have alot of construction activity. They've put new brink around the windows and during the day t…

My sentiments exactly MM. This combined with them well underway on the parking garage, I'm starting to believe this might happen!

They're half way through tearing it down already. There is picture with the article showing the demolition work. http://www.lansingstatejournal.com/article/20090708/NEWS01/307080012&referrer=FRONTPAGECAROUSEL

It got another 90-day extension to get financing in place. I think I read in another article that this is the fourth extension, and that Strathmore has had problems with two other developments in Michigan which is worrisome to me. I still think this…

According to this June 09 article demolition of the City Club "has just begun." The project is still slated to be completed in 2010 which I find surprising, not sure how likely that is. I'll check soon to confirm that demolition of the City Club has…

I usually go once a year, so I was planning on going sometime in the late summer anyway...but I'm glad to be able to support this service. Also, I have family in the Fairfax, VA area so I am really hoping they bring back the Baltimore flight they we…

First, the U.S. Customs Station opened today. http://www.lansingstatejournal.com/article/20090526/NEWS03/905260343/-1/newshome Secondly, JetAmerica's website is now up and running. I just bought two round trip tickets direct from Lansing to Newark…

Today at lunch I noticed they are back working on the parking garage. The facade has been off completely since the last posts, but today they had the small "cranes" set-up and looked to be sand blasting or something, and maybe doing structural work.…

Rogers officially requested $110 million in the new transportation bill to "to plan and build a major public transportation route between downtown Lansing and the Meridian Mall." If this goes through it will be interesting to see what directon this …

LEPFA has picked a general contractor for the new city market. It came in at $1.6 million, which was the sale price of the market to Gillespie. I believe they were anticipating the construction to be ~$1.45 million leaving some money leftover for th…
