Dicey move. I don't really like that... Still rooting for this full-on though
-
So glad there's movement on this. Seems like it's in good hands with Eyde. The design looks really nice. It will be great to have permanent residents at this site in this part of downtown. I'd love to see LCC work with a developer to build a mixe…

Those are significant developments. I like the Slotkin move. Was the Women's Center on Washington Ave at one point too? I also thought they were in that little building on the river and Grand Ave between the parking garage and the tower?? They sure …

I appreciate all improvements in downtown over the last 20 years. I think it looks great and a lot of important buildings have been refurbished and/or repurposed (as a sidenote, I'm surprised a restaurant hasn't opened up near the Accident Trust Fun…

Okay, what I'm beginning to think downtown Lansing needs, in order to be a viable downtown, which means a 24 hour downtown, amongst other things (performing arts center, grocery store, etc), is a 12-15-story residential mixed use tower - big and bul…

Yes to upsizing east of Bogue. It's totally ripe for it. Wasn't there a 6-story building being proposed at one point, built around a tree ??

I like the Lakeshore site a lot for performing arts center. I think it would be nice addition to Washington Ave. and would sustain some higher end restaurants on that strip. That said, anything (residential, retail, etc) would be nice at the Lake…

Valley Court! Great name

Yeah, I agree -- it would be TERRIFYING to be in an apt south of Trowbridge when the trains come through. I remember sleeping over at a friend's house in Spartan Village right by the tracks and when the freights passed in the night I woke up each ti…

Yeah, this is a tight space. I definitely would not like to see anymore fast food restaurants over here. (Taco Bell and Wendy's are the best anyways). There are too many real food options over here to waste space on fast food. I could see this space…

....but really only from a couple of angles. (Michigan Ave westbound and 496 westbound.....and maybe from somewhere around Prudden Place)

one of the best skylines in the country for a city of this size

Great points, I love this idea for Lansing roads.

Wow cool!! Neat photos. I remember seeing photos of this in one of the Lansing history books and very being intrigued....I wanna say the book called it the mechanics school, or normal school, or boys reform school or something like that. The buil…

Gomsu - I too hope EL promotes the downtown that is arriving fast! ...through policies, job attraction, expanded full time resident requirements (maybe), etc. That said, I think we're at a nice point where development is happening at such a rate …

Uh oh, do we need to start a Lansing Skateboarding thread???

Mich, are you sure you're right about the non-discrimination law, or lack of? If so, this is unbelievable and truly, truly sad.

pretty sure this was the photo. Also an interesting interview with a Lansing-bred photographer: https://skatejawn.com/mike-blabac-interview/
