Very cool that the response is so quick!

I am a firm believer that if the city removed it's residency requirements and allowed student housing to be built, these buildings would be built immediately without any need for brownfield funds or other tax incentives. There is continued construct…

I wonder what those things are on the cement in the middle. It would be cool if as part of this project they bricked the pillars of the stadium so they all match the new addition. I think that would be the easiest way to make this look better.

The south end of Spartan Stadium will be getting a new one-story building to expand the concessions area, upgrade the bathrooms, and increase the plaza space. The LSJ includes a rendering, but I wish it didn't look so much like a bunker. Subtracting…

The Interdisciplinary Science and Technology Building will be built at the corner of Service and Bogue Road by the Clinic, which makes sense but I really wish all of these buildings were built closer to central campus. Campus is continually pushing …

Do the residents of that section just need to vote to annex into Lansing or East Lansing? How do they propose a ballot proposal like that? Do they approach the township, city of Lansing, or state?

There is a purchase agreement for the office portion of the Marriott building in East Lansing for $3.25 million. I haven't heard anything more about who the purchaser is or what they plan on doing with the office portion once the sale goes through.

While we may see more than 10% living there, maybe closer to 20% due to a selection bias in prices, it is our unconscious bias that makes us disproportionately notice people that are different than ourselves. For every "Chinese" student that we noti…

I don't think it is fair to say that the majority of students living in Skyvue will be Chinese. Chinese students make up just over 10% of MSU's undergraduate population (East Asian influx slowly changes East Lansing), so if you project that percenta…

I have heard that Sparrow's new cafeteria is run by Aramark, the same company that handles food for prisons and has had numerous news stories related to cleanliness and interactions between their staff and the prisoners. Can anyone confirm that this…

The City Council has been busy these past few meetings passing ordinances that were requested by the Park District developers. It seems that the city is finally at the point where they will relax some of the zoning requirements and let something get…

I really enjoy your posts and sometimes I don't comment replies because they would basically be "I agree" and I sometimes aren't sure what else to say. I know that this time of the year can be slower for construction updates. I'll try to post more c…

The City of East Lansing is going to extend the Northern Tier trail. One of the paths currently ends at a parking lot in the Whitehills neighborhood. That path will now extend to the corner of Lake Lansing and Birch Row. Another extension will bring…

Pretty disappointed to see that the RTA failed in Detroit and the surrounding area. That proposal could have had a lot of positive effects for the region. I'm happy that there wasn't a BRT proposal on the ballot in Lansing, it probably wouldn't h…

More information about Replay Tavern and the old Chrome Cat building. From a reddit thread, it looks like Replay Tavern (a console-based barcade) will be where Grand River Tackle & Bait was, on the corner of Larch and Grand River. The old Chrome…

I'm not sure if it was mentioned before, and I must have missed it, but the plans for Claras are to reopen as an entertainment venue in 2017. http://www.lansingstatejournal.com/story/news/local/2016/11/07/claras-memorabilia-sold-given-away-week/9341…

I believe "Branoff" was part of "Branoff Asset Management", which used to own the "Abbot Manor" building, I believe prior to Westpac owning it.

Yeah, I second what gbinlansing says. We need people who are willing to accept changes and not require that our communities continue to develop as though they are stuck in the 1960s and 1970s.

No, didn't google it, but I think I remember reading something about it before. They're related to Replay Entertainment from East Lansing, right?
