  • They said 9,000 people showed up for the chili cookout, myself included. The rivertrail was packed, and there was little room to move near some of the vendors. It would have been nice to see Lansing close down Washington Sq like they are doing for…
  • I guess there is a terrible over extension of utilities near Eastwood, where the limit on sewers has stopped further expansion north. Here is a midday update from the LSJ about it: Sewer issue stalls Eastwood area expansion plan I usually like …
  • Yeah, a green roof is news to me also. Thanks for the info jwswrites. I think we'll see more green buildings coming as there are many tax breaks for building LEED approved buildings, and also it attracts the type of people (younger, artsy) that th…
  • Here is a link to an LSJ story today: Surface lots in East Lansing open for new units They also mention the opening of Lot 1 for development (although this isn't the first time East Lansing has tried to get the lot developed).
  • Yeah it is the parking lot behind Stonehouse Village 1, across the street from the outlined parking lot.
  • The building that the art studio moved in to isn't being planned for demolition. They moved a couple blocks east to Charles St.
  • I just found a new picture from the Strathmore site about the City Center 2 project! It looks pretty expansive, and I am still trying to comprehend how large this development would be. Here is the picture, and I've typed out the legend since it's …
  • It definitely would be worth it to at least voice your opinion at City Council. It would be nice to organize a group of people who are against the proposal and get some publicity about this proposal.
  • Yeah, thats a mixed use development, with I think about 10,000 sq ft of ground floor retail. The site is cleared the structure should start to appear over the next couple months. There are a couple signs up at the site with renderings. I am not s…
  • The houses on Louis St are now being torn down. I went by today and there was a large backhoe tearing up some of the properties. The new development will be an apartment building that was spoken of earlier on this discussion.
  • I went to the Juneteenth celebration today near Sexton and on the way at the corner of Kalamazoo and MLK there was a sign that said a future office building was coming soon. The sign had a rendering on it, so next time I go by I'll try and take a p…
  • I rode my bike through Washington today and saw them cutting down all the trees on the two blocks. I was just coming to the website to let everybody know, only to find out it had already been on here. Thanks sabatoa for posting this. It will be r…
  • Well, the Museum Place has seemed to be pushed out of the spotlight for a while, probably due to budget contraints with getting commercial tenants, and also with the relocation of current tenants. Now that (scene) Metrospace has moved, all of the t…
  • Thanks for joining. The contribution of all the members helps to grow the knowledge and insight of the whole metro Lansing community.
  • When are they supposed to reopen the other block of Washington Square? I thought that was supposed to happen this summer.
  • New Changes Give Hope to Downtown Merchants ^^ There is an article today about the growing amount of people downtown and some of the new businesses coming in.
  • I agree, they make that very clear. It's just too bad that the previous developer fell through. It would have been really nice to see a 12 story condo tower in East Lansing.
  • Press release from the City of East Lansing: Stonehouse Village III Groundbreaking Ceremony to be Held Tuesday, June 19 EAST LANSING, Mich. — The City of East Lansing will kick off its newest development project, Stonehouse Village III, with a…
