  • The two houses on Louis Street are ready for demolition now. The utility meters have been removed and the houses look to be stripped of anything of value. It's been a while since the project was talked about. To recap, it's a 4-story (44 feet tal…
  • It looks like a permanent lot. They put in access off of Capitol Ave.
  • I was downtown yesterday and watched as Cooley was paving over the lot between the library and Knapps. There's no trees or islands in the asphalt lot, something I would have thought would be required.
  • From their website: Leap is an innovative private/public partnership that's been working since 2007 to position the Greater Lansing region to win new jobs and new investment in this competitive global market. We're a one-stop shop offering direct …
  • Thanks! I think that the trolleys offer a nice niche ride and probably attract people who wouldn't normally ride the bus. I'm glad to hear nothings changing with Entertainment Express.
  • Hey JManzella, Welcome to the website. I heard that CATA has sold their trolleys. Does this mean that Entertainment Express is being re-purposed? Or have newer trolleys (or buses) been purchased to replace these? Also, have you been working/li…
  • They'll most likely have to tear down the lecture halls that are in the B section of Wells Hall since they likely weren't designed to have such a heavy building on top of them
  • Thanks for the images. I like how the building is at a different angle than the rest of the surrounding angles. I'd like to see MSU start putting green roofs on their new buildings though (I'm crossing my fingers).
  • A press release about MSU Construction Day mentions that the current plan for demolishing Morril Hall is to replace it with an extension on to Wells Hall. Until now I didn't know where they were planning to rebuild. I would have hoped for the loc…
  • Hi Elinor, Thanks for your contribution. We already have a thread for the art museum which can be found here: http://develop.metrolansing.com/forum/comments.php?DiscussionID=62
  • The ground breaking for the Plant Science Expansion will be tomorrow (Friday) at 2pm. MSU has put out a press release with more information about the ground breaking. The building will cost $43 million and will be 80,000 square feet. Construction…
  • First, I'd like to welcome flowergirl to the forum. Is this your first time here, or have you been silently following for a while? Second, if anybody hasn't read the City Pulse article, you should check it out, it gives a nice overview of where L…
  • @hood: From what I can find, this development will be located at 5155 Marsh Rd in Meridian Township. It will have 27,000 square feet of commercial space, 36 multiple-family dwelling units, and a daycare. It's been in the planning phases since 2008, …
  • Yeah I just took a look at it myself and I was impressed with the interior decor. I think this will be good at bringing more people to Washington Sq.
  • Here is a link to their website: http://www.wildbeaversaloon.com/gen4/index.htm
  • I've found renderings of the Plant Science Extension in slides that were posted on the College of Natural Science website. Also, I've found renderings for lots of other projects in the MSU Construction Junction publication from December 2009. It …
  • In the same corner of campus as the previously mentioned Plant Science Expansion, MSU announced on Thursday that they have recieved $7.45 million in federal stimulus money to build a new College Of Nursing research center. The building will be calle…
  • Thanks for posting the pictures mindbender. They were great to look at.
  • @hood: The article mentioned a new name for the PSD, but I couldn't find the actual new name anywhere. Any idea what it will be?
  • I came across this video of a fly through of the new art museum. It looks a lot taller than I had been expecting: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4z3_ApgR3X8
