Nothing on this site will ever live up to how amazing University Village was - in terms of layout, scale, atmosphere. I have so many great memories from those apartments and grounds.... I always hoped the old state police buildings would be preser…

Yeah, great info and analysis. That +2,059 international immigration number is interesting to me. I wonder how many of these are related to the university....or what other things that are attracting international immigrants (jobs, resettlement progr…

Okay, I see in your post it's from the 30's. Thanks for sharing this

Oh man, that would've been a cool building to have in Lansing. A lot of cities have buildings like this scattered around or even in little districts, must have been a real trend at some point. Anybody know when this style was in? 20's, 30's, 40's …

Oooh, it got political :) Hood - I agree with you on Snyder. Though, I personally think the world is too complex for libertarianism. And to both of you - I don't think that Lansing is on as bad a track as this discussion suggests. The City might…

Anyone know the status of the 3-4 story apt building on the west side of this street? Seemed like it had a fire a few years ago but was slowly being rehabbed or something....I haven't been by there in awhile. That would be another important little p…

Looking good in this latest rendering. It appears that Niles Bolton Associates are the architects http://www.nilesbolton.com/ I'm a little confused by the floors plans. Did they mix up the colors for residential and retail? I'm curious what the gr…

@Michmatters I agree that this is a high profile site, I just meant the stakes are low given how long it has existed as a parking lot. Obviously too many similar parking lots on this side of downtown, but also a lot of good building stock too. Will…

Hmm, what a weird project. I liked the first design the best (minus the ground level garage). It seemed way more contemporary...but also probably quite a bit more expensive. I agree that this latest arrangement is awkward. The commercial portion is…

Hope this is a realistic proposal. The scale and style seems perfect for this area and I'd love to see the little commercial building come back to life.

I checked out TWG's website -- http://twgdev.com/properties/ -- very impressed with their work! (kind of made me want to swing through Indianapolis sometime). Lots of senior housing, many in rehabbed pre-war buildings. Their new construction buildin…
