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…

This is a BIG building. It's gonna house a lot of people! Exciting.....

....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…

Interesting point.

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 …

I think a 5-story building will have a big presence at this site.....even with bad design. But I'm with you in hoping for something spectacular.

Uh oh, do we need to start a Lansing Skateboarding thread???
-
Good that it will come to fruition faster. Hopefully this doesn't jeopardize high quality design, planning or construction.

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/

Also, that rail line is no longer active right? The diagonal one that hits Mt Hope and s Washington. This should obviously become part of the greenway network sooner rather than later. This would definitely kickstart the redevelopment of Hood's drea…
