Looks like the public service department has updated their project map for the year. They say the project is for "Pathway Construction & Bike Lanes along Collins Rd." So I guess that means that the road is going to be widened? That's the only re…

Yes, the roundabout is part of the project. I posted about it last month: https://develop.metrolansing.com/discussions/discussion/comment/14816/#Comment_14816 Looks like the public service department has updated their project map for the year.…

I'm confused by this. Am I reading this correctly, that they are cutting trees all the way down Collins to Dunckel? It's confusing me, because I thought we were talking about a trail on Farm and the little loop at Collins? https://twitter.com/Lan…

I think the high-rise concept they put out next to simply reusing the store is probably a bit too intense a usage for the area, but I suspect we're not going to see the full building renovated, and we will see a more intense use of the land. http…

Yep, they posted this Tweet a week ago offering it: https://twitter.com/GillespieGrp/status/1367490636908285970

Interesting things up at next week's council meeting: - Form Based Code to replace the existing, decade's old code. This has been in the works since 2012; now it gets a vote before the full council. - Authorization of application for Michigan …

John Sears was the guy who owned this building?! So, so sad. BTW, the building is entirely light industrial/commercial as far as I know, which is impressive because he didn't have to design it to look this nice and like lofts.

There was a big kerfuffle about cell phone towers in this area back early last year before the Board of Zoning Appeals. The tower at 910 River - this area is directly east of REO Town and Riverpoint across the Red Cedar - was having trouble with its…

Missed this one a few days ago. Park Furniture on West Saginaw near MLK has finally closed. I had no idea that the owner owned five other properties on the block. No wonder the whole block so sh%tty for so long. Hopefully, he sales at a reasonable p…

Looking at the city site, it appears it was sold by Dave Sheets in December to "1214 S Washington Ave LLC" in December, which is basically the address of the building. So, no telling what's being done, here. Speaking of December sales, it looks l…

What building are you talking about?

They withdrew the request, but someone applied to the Board of Zoning Appeals this month to request a density variance for a 67-unit apartment building on the medical office building property at 1100 West Saginaw at MLK just east of St. Lawrence cam…

Yeah, basically everything east of Cedar and south of the Red Cedar - save for the major exception of Baker-Donora - has held up pretty well. Did a streetview and bird's eye view of the Clifton Street entrance to Scott Woods. Yeah, it's tiny, and…

Clifford, Actually went and read the resolution for the easements, and it's interesting because they actually mention the acquisition of the easements so that the non-motorized path connects to "the new McLaren Hospital, the University Club, MSU …

I'd just as soon assume it was the club they didn't want to deal with. In either case, I don't think they have to ask permission for easements along an existing right-of-way (I could be wrong about this). But I assumed to potentially avoid the heada…

Missed this news on Wednesday, but the Build Lansing development program put out RFIs (request for information) for three city-owned sites on Wednesay due on April 9th. * 1020 West Hillsdale: This lot is where Uniona Missionary Baptist was at ML…
