I don't expect it, at all. It will require pressuring them; they don't do anything with lines they don't have to do. With all of the street construction and other utility construction going on around that area, that they didn't put them under with a…

That makes sense! What doesn't make sense is why they'd later put it back closer unless requested.

No, I've not heard any mention of it.

Market-rate building from today: I really thought they were going to bury the utilities, but what happened is that they extended the height of the poles, and simply moved what I think are the BWL wires up. So, some residents will still have a…

He needs to do what Ferguson did on Red Cedar and what Gentilozzi is doing with New Vision. You'd think he'd have been reaching out over these many, many, many years the Walter Neller property and adjoining parking lot has been vacant. He certainly …

Didn't know that Hepler's website had this project up. I'll go take a look. I feel like the down districts are mostly fine. There is more than enough room in DT-3 to make things happen. DT-1 is only along the fringes, anyway, and I'm not sure if …

Citykid, between the (east of Prudden) Motor Wheels neighborhood project and what's left in the factory, do you know how many units total this will be? We know the neighborhood project is over 200 (phased in). I saw that the council approved the cha…

Yes, apparently Grand was northbound, too, at once point. I'm not sure when they all got switched in the other direction. Probably after the freeway was opened.

I found this on CADL's website, and had no idea there was a parking garage next to the Masonic Temple: I can't find the date on this, but it appears from other photos it was present in the 1960's? Older photos from the 1950's show a one-s…

If you've followed our discussion on this project on here, you would know we weren't going to be happy with this. lol I'd been very clear I didn't want to see them move from the current location, so nothing would have made me happy. We're just stayi…

It's clearly just to enrich/payback politically-connected developers. It's the only kind of development the Bojis do in Lansing, really. lol

Many people don't care about this, anymore, but finding out that renovation is being outsourced to the Bojis doesn't sit well with me, and I wish public organizations did more stuff in-house like they used to. Whatever, it's going to happen, now.…

They announced this years ago, but apparently I hadn't caught it in the news. I didn't find out until earlier this summer when a relative stayed there. They were almost done with the renovation then, so it must be completed - or very near to on some…

The subdivision regulations thing should be in front of council soon - it hit an internal delay, but I'm hoping soon since it is holding up a potential project. Ooo, looking forward to seeing what this is. Have you heard anything about Tow…

Reading the upcoming zoning board of appeals packet, and someone wants to develop a suburban-styled single-story 4,000 sq ft marijuana dispensary with a drive-thru at the northwest corner of Larch & Saginaw. They want a setback of nearly 91 feet…

Nothing development-wise in next week's city council agenda, and still notably missing votes on New Visions Lansing. Kind of wondering what's going on.
-
Didn't see much in next week's Planning Commission, but the minutes for the previous one show that the commission unanimously approved the Planning Office's recommendations for reform of the subdivisions ordinances to cut some of the red tape. Good …

Just noticed on the Aug 15 planning commission agenda, too, that there is plans for a Cooper's Hawk Winery & Restaurant in between McAllisters and the Huntington Bank up on the mostly otherwise vacant hill at Eastwood. They call themselves a "up…

Edit: Ah, I see how the NEZ ordinance amendment and the OPRA revocation are related after seeing D&P committee minutes from last week. I don't understand all of the details, but apparently, Hepler is seeking the revocation of the OPRA certificat…

I'm still not sure why the Bojis are buying the lot instead of CATA, but it's hit the news: Developer to buy city owned parking lot Lolo Robison, a spokeswoman for CATA, says the organization supports the sale of the property to the Boji Gro…
