Yeah it was in a WKAR story, I thought it got posted somewhere. I have it in the development rundown thread along with renderings of Walter French that might not have been shared here. https://www.wkar.org/wkar-news/2023-10-26/new-public-safety-cam…

I had forgotten all about Hobbs+Black, their buildings are never very adventurous but have a nice look. The public safety complex does have their aesthetic, I can certainly believe it's them. I'm happy that they're at least building the Mt Hope S…

Not exactly earth shattering but at 354 units it seems worth mentioning: A new 30 acre suburban-style apartment complex on N Canal adjacent to the Canal Club apartments. I have no opinion other than to say it's nice to see more units in the area and…

Yeah, the old Shiawassee proposal is very similar to Stadium North: a workforce building and a senior building, each 70ish units and 4 floors. Back when Stadium North was announced I assumed that the same developer was involved. Found the old thr…

I noticed that building at Shiawassee and Larch the other say, the first thing I wondered was whether Eyde owned it. Do you remember how far through approvals that project got before?

Another thing worth pointing out was the going on about subsidies to these city facilities as if that's an inherently bad thing. The Lansing Center, the ballpark and even Groespeck Golf Course are all assets that I'm sure the city sees a net positiv…

Yeah, I replied with similar feeling to your other comment.

This was a horrible decision as far as I can tell. Councilmember spoke about wanting it to be smaller and lower quality, with less "trinkets". That's the thinking that has led this city to being the brunt of jokes. The proposed performing arts cente…

Yeah, I went back and watched. They accepted the grants for New Vision and for the new city hall money but denied the purchase agreement for the Masonic Temple. I'm happy about this, at minimum if they go with the Masonic Temple they need to negotia…

Yeah, I was trying to be nice with the "borderline" part

That's welcome news. The airport authority now says on their website that they expect the new master plan to be released in early 2025 so perhaps we'll get some idea as to the scale and expected cost of a new terminal then. https://www.flylansing.c…

Oh yeah, it will be very nice to see those water features working. The paths through Ranney Park are finally officially open, it looks like there's still some work to do on and around the big water feature.

I'm still not excited about the plan, even less so after learning that the city is only planning on taking up the lower 4 floors and there's basically no chance of acquiring the lot next door. I am really, really hoping the push to simply restore an…

That's certainly a disappointment, I don't like the idea of having a 50'+ greenspace in the ROW that doesn't do anyone much good and will almost certainly end up poorly maintained. It doesn't make sense.

What I had a problem with today didn't seem related to his political leanings but absolutely gives credence to your theory on intelligence. Check it out beginning about 1:55:00

I don't see any watermarks on any of the renderings or mention of the architects or companies involved. From the look of the buildings I wouldn't be at all surprised if they are from different architects, they're very different designs. I still wish…

City Pulse has an article on this project. They're somewhat critical of what they say is a change in workforce housing from all 450 units to 150 units. I don't remember them saying in any of the articles that all of the housing would be workforce, I…
