Yeah, I'm not crazy about it. I didn't realize that they were going to use both blocks. Sounds like the west block is going to be entirely parking since I'm not sure the building is even going to take up the whole of the east block. We'll have to wa…

Only development-related thing on next week's council agenda is Sparrow asking for the vacation of the block of Eight Street between Jerome and Michigan for their surgery center. The planning office is recommending approval for this, but did cite co…

Lansing is continuing its program, using FEMA Hazard Mitigation Grants, to remove properties from our 100-year floodplain. According to next week's city council agenda, they've identified at least 9 more properties for demolition, 7 in the Lansing s…

Looks like the City Pulse also has got around to reporting on the Emergent proposal at the airport: WEDNESDAY, April 28 — The city of Lansing is trying to entice a biopharmaceutical company to build a large manufacturing facility near the Capita…

Anyone know which of the buildings at the Four Corners will be losing/replacing their signs? It has to be the Comerica Building or 101 South Washington. https://twitter.com/LansingPubServ/status/1387483583426744324 And, yes, the council reso…

Hadn't heard from this one since January: https://twitter.com/eastlansinginfo/status/1385196988002672643 But when asked to respond to Vlahakis’ statement to ELi from last week, credit union CEO and President April Clobes suggested in her re…

An article on the new recycling program Lansing and East Lansing residents may want to read. I'm definitely going to have to look into exactly what kind of plastics they take and don't take, as the article isn't super clear on that. The facility is …

Hood, the company filed a preliminary site plan with the township before this option occured to them. They basically say that approval of this agreement will allow them to move forward. So I assume this is a near-term project, maybe the next year or…

Lansing is looking to amend it's 425 Act land-swap agreement with DeWitt Township to add 34 acres at the NW corner of MLK and Sheridan to the exist Act 425 area. Apparently, Emergent BioSolutions - which is kitty corner to the site - wants to eventu…

Coming back to correct something. I mistakenly thought the cafe in the Downtown Marriott was a Starbucks; it's not.

Developers are requesting an amendment to the brownfield plan that would add the old Pere Marquette/Union Depot to this project. They say that they plan to turn the old station into a commercial outlet for three users. Strangely, one of those will b…

Well, that was quick. I honestly don't see how they save it without physically downsizing it and creating a sort of "town center" at the site like the township has been mulling for decades. But I guess we'll see what the new owners can do. https:…

Looks like the surgery center is moving forward. The super-convenient childcare center on the block announced it will close in july. Sparrow owns the building and originally announced they'd be relocating the business, but now say they won't be. …

Seems to be the discussion every time one of these are added, but we've had them in Lansing for years. They reduce crashes and the severity of crashes and slows down traffic without stopping it on moderately busy roads. More effective/safer than a i…
