As far as I can remember, the proposal didn't get funding from the stimulus. The city is still looking at doing the project, although they are looking elsewhere for funding.

Capital Gains Media is reporting that the Marketplace development has been awarded a 20 percent tax cut, and will proceed with construction. They are now putting saying that construction will start at the end of 2011, to allow time for planning, bud…

A while back I remember somebody telling me that there is another SoS branch in downtown Lansing for the state congress members. I can't find mentions of it in the SoS Branch Locator, so it might not exist anymore.

@JazperG: This is what I read on EastLansingBars.com: Ok it looks like the new Lou Ha's has been confirmed. They are moving into what was formerly Small Planet, then "Arena" and will now soon be the new Lou and Harry's The way I read it, it …

I didn't see any timeline in the article. Anyone know when they think the sculpture will be installed? Or are they waiting to get enough money before it will be installed?

I think my biggest disappointment of 2010 was the multiple announcements from LCC about their surface parking lots. Its a shame that we keep paving over green-space for asphalt parking lots when we could be building up. My big successes are the s…

Yeah here are two news stories about Edmund's. I saw another story in the LSJ, but can't find it now. 2 for $20: Edmund's Pastime Edmund's Pastime offers 'no pretension, just good, hot food' Here's the blurb about 621: Lansing's 621 Bar Reop…

@ MichMatters: That can't be said enough times over. Thinking about this some more, I think the money could be better spent (if at all possible) on a pedestrian bridge over 127 at Lake Lansing. The area is extremely dangerous for pedestrians and …

Yeah this is nice improvement. It would also be nice if a sound barrier was added to the east side of that corridor to match the opposing side

I'll try to take some pictures soon to show it's progress

Construction on the Louis St. development has been continuing. The building is now at its final height, which is five floors above ground. There are two floors of parking, with one above ground and one below ground. The building is located pretty cl…

Its cool. Yeah I think someone was selling cars out of the one lot and I'm not sure what the house was being used for. I wonder if something is coming in there or if they plan on using it as a surface parking lot.

Southeast corner of Michigan and Francis would be CBI Copy Products, right? Are you talking about the northeast corner, where El Oasis has been located?

Three ways to get around the medians: underground, elevated, or reassigning a lane on each side for BRT. Obviously the first two aren't cost effective. Maybe the last option could happen, but it doesn't seem likely (however it would be interesting).

Construction on the Louis St. development is continuing. They have the structure of the 2-floor parking garage completed and look like they are now working on the third floor which will be residential. They plan to construct a 4 story / 44 foot tall…

Actually, the more looking around I do, the more that I see this looks like a proposal from July 2008. I doubt it if H Inc. is still pursuing the idea, since it doesn't show up in any of the City of East Lansing's planning commission or DDA meeting …

Thanks for posting and welcome to the forum. H Inc. is the same company that did the MotorWheel Lofts in Lansing which as far as I know have been a huge success. I didn't know about this project before. It looks like the first phase would be located…

I just went by there yesterday night and saw people working on the interior. I expect it to open by January.
-
@JazperG good question. I'm not sure either. I don't recall seeing anything come up with the City Council. Maybe there were business partner issues?

It's been vacant for a while now. I'm not sure what work is being done, but it would be nice to see another small market move in. I know as a former resident of the nearby dorms, the local market was much more convenient than riding the bus to Meije…
