I went by the Louis St. development today and noticed that they haven't made any real progress on the site in about a week or two. The two properties have been demolished and there is a large backhoe and a bulldozer on site. I hope that they haven't…

Here's an update on the progress: They've been doing work on the foundation walls. Here is a closer shot from 7/16/2010: The last picture is from the construction website.

Thanks for the post j. My family and I like to bike to Eastwood Towne Center, and we have to cross that overpass. It is true that the overpass is one of the most potentially dangerous crossings in the region. I'm pretty sure that it is under stat…

@hood: I agree with you about nuclear being a great option, but I think that there will have to be a lot of work to change the public opinion about nuclear and its safety. I'm curious if property values are more adversely affected when a nuclear …

The Culvers was proposed for an outlot at the southeast corner of the Meijer property (Lake Lansing and Marfitt). The Meijer outlot that is in question has been proposed many times over for numerous projects such as gas stations and restaurants and …

According to the council member concerns last night, that corner where the Culvers was to be located was designed as a buffer between the business and residential. I don't think that those people are against business, but I do think that they recogn…

Last night the City Council met and discussed several topics: * Both downtown developments on Ann Street were approved * The West Village project got a brownfield amendment that now makes the probability of success much higher for a hotel to mov…

I think it's great to see the vacant land being used. I'm not sure how it will affect the environmental quality around the site and the people that live near it though. How much emissions will the plant be putting out?

I like the idea of the public art at the Deluxe Inn but it's too bad that they will be destroying the artwork that is contributed. We should get more public art installations within our communities, and allow them to be living art where other can…

Thanks for the pictures. Is it me or does it look like they are going to try to make the new Plant Sciences addition have an ivy look from the beginning?

Nice! Thanks for the update hood. Gillespie also announce Lansing Metro Marinas yesterday where they will be offering boat tours of the Grand River. I thought the prices were pretty reasonable. http://metromarinas.com/HoursandPricing.aspx

I noticed in the East Lansing DDA minutes that Riverfront Bicycles will be extending their lease through October, 2011. They are located in one of the buildings where the parking structure will be built. The city did not have a problem with the leas…

There is a new tavern/bar that is looking to move across from the Marriot on MAC. It's called "What up Dawg" and they are trying to get a liquor license now. Edit: The liquor license was approved.

The MSU State News posted an update on the construction. They said that we will be able to see the structure rise above ground by November.

There's a basic timeline available at the MSU Physical Plant website (http://www.construction.msu.edu/construction/index.cfm/projects/broad-art-museum/) They say: "Construction is planned to begin in March 2010 and will be substantially complete …

There's mention in this weeks City Council agenda for two site plans of projects that are coming for downtown East Lansing. An application from Infinity Companies LLC for Site Plan and Special Use Permit approval to construct a four story mixed u…
