I'm confused. I thought this was all one project (220). Where would this be relative to the other one?

Wait, what do you mean by second building for the Cherry Hill project?

Not exactly sure how this works, maybe citykid remembers more of this, but Hepler is requesting the revocation of his OPRA ceritificate for the property up on May Street. I guess it's because the scope of the project is changing from office space to…

Healthcare news: MSU closes on deal to purchase Meridian Twp. property for MSU Health Care The university has closed on a deal to buy a 13-acre property in Meridian Township that contains two buildings used by MSU Health Care. The two …

I really enjoy Old Bag of Nail over at Red Cedar Renaissance. It's going to be so cool to see the water flowing when the drain project is completed later this year.

We keep calling it a tunnel, but that would essentially be a skywalk, which wouldn't be the worst thing. The problem is not that it's a tunnel, it's that it's a whole damn parking garage built over the street. We literally just corrected that mistak…

I heard someone say that the parking was required to get financing for this; I hope that's not true. I'm not a fan of building over the street, either, but my thing is that you literally have a parking garage next to another parking garage; it's ove…

Reading more of this, I'm a bit excited that so much of this will be workforce housing, and because so much of this is funded with the affordable housing grants we got in the state budget, this isn't a wishful-thinking set of projects. A huge part o…

Oh, not today. We're not going to start pessimism, today; not with the tallest building proposed in downtown Lansing in since forever. lol Initial complaint to me is that having your tallest book-ended by parking garages in 2023 seems to be going…

Was trying to see if I could pull up any clues about tomorrow, and noticed the three lots immediately south of the South Grand Parking Garage and north of the Grand Tower sold for $2 million (I'm not sure if it's apiece or altogether) back in March,…

The QD thing was just some big dumpsters outside and the windows looked new, so it's possible it wasn't even any construction. The Lansing Industrial Center behind it looks like it was also getting new windows or something. I feel like "transform…

Looks like at their meeting last month, the Lansing EDC is set to repurchase the small surface lot at the northwest corner of Michigan & Cedar next to the Lansing Center for $280,000, the price they sold it to the Sault Ste. Marie Chippewa back …

Notice some more work going on at QD's headquarters building down on Mt. Hope and Washington. Property assessor page shows a few projects permitted, but most appear to have been completed/expired, so I'm not sure what's going on. The Lansing Industr…

I was going to mention the old Kalamazoo Gateway proposal. It's funny, though, because I don't expect anything that nice, anymore. It's interesting around that time how nice the architecture being planned was; even the Gillespie's were putting up st…

I'm just glad because the Michigan Ave location is cramped for them, and this new location will still be centrally located, but have much more room for the Mission to house and deliver resources better. They will apparently develop a new structure o…

Next week's Planning Commission agenda just dropped. - The Lansing City Rescue Mission is looking for a (spot) rezoning and special use permit for moving its single men's and women's shelters from East Michigan Avenue and Cedar Street, respectiv…

They'll have to, but it won't mean anything. If the public's opinion meant anything, this wouldn't be taking so many years and they wouldn't be so uncoordinated in planning these things. I don't understand this town, sometimes; it's so small-brai…

One bay of parking already exists in front of the existing building, so I wasn't surprised to see that. It's just overall shitty urban planning. It's just overall too much parking and poorly sited, to boot. How are they going to justify this on a li…
