  • I went by the Beaumont yesterday, and the region that hood yellow outlined is now complete, but it looks like they haven't even started to think about the rest of the development. I wonder if sales have been slow and that is what is keeping them fr…

  • The gas station and Pizza Hut on the corner of Abbott and Saginaw are currently being torn down to make way for a Rite-Aid. This project is moving pretty quick, as Pizza Hut moved out only a couple months ago. The Rite-Aid will have a drive up win…
  • The city council will vote Monday night to decide to sell the parking ramp.
  • (Scene) MetroSpace has opened up their new location on Charles St next to Georgio's. They have their first exhibit open in time for East Lansing's Art Festival this weekend. This means that City Center 2 has now been cleared of it's last tenant, a…
  • The house across the street, Theta Delta Chi's old fraternity house, has now been fully demolished, and the site of the house will be used as a staging area for the construction equipment and materials. Construction should start in mid-June.

  • Hood you beat me to the punch!
  • hood, There are plans to continue to develop this area, as I believe it's either DTN or another major property management company that has bought up all the other homes on these blocks for redevelopment. I believe they've also passed the necessary …
  • Has anybody gotten any pictures of the Hollister building lately? I went downtown last week, but I managed to miss seeing the building.
  • This is a huge development. It would be nice to see some regional cooperation among these counties to stop these sprawl developments. The infrastructure is not there for this, and the traffic will continue to get worse as people commute from furth…
  • Lets try and not make these discussions personal. This thread is about the Stadium District.
  • Welcome Lansingborn. It is good that you and Concerned are bringing these topics to the forum. I think we all appreciate the conversation. I do hope that we (Lansing) can be self sufficient in the future, but our state is in need of being self …
  • You can now see these really well from 127, as they rise over the freeway.
  • I shop downtown, and I make it a point to be a patron to a downtown business if there is one that offers the product I want.
  • Let's not let this thread get off-topic. But on the issue of MSU investing in Grand Rapids, that has to do with the lack of a medical school in Grand Rapids and the large population to support it. The Lansing area doesn't have a large enough popul…
  • Welcome concernedtaxpayer. There are also people protesting in MSU because of some of the sewer work that is being done is by non-union workers. Have you seen that?
