Yes, both these are correct, though the track work is more maintenance and repair. The Lansing Public Safety Department keeps residents abreast of their work on their social media accounts if anyone is interested. https://twitter.com/LansingPubSe…

The signage on the market went up, today. It looks really classy. Looks like the City Pulse did a write-up on this one on their website. The apartments are to open next month, the market soon after, and the hotel in January of February. Apparentl…

The only reason you have to pay at Sparrow is because it's a parking garage, and that helps pay back its construction. So, parking is going to be free at McLaren like most hospitals with their own surface lots. BTW, something to remember is that …

I'd think it make since to build a nice expanded shelter where Volunteers of America of America is on Larch, though I doubt they'd combined their missions. If not that, maybe they could purchase the "Back 40" just south of the VOA. The VOA built a n…

Here is the mural on the back you were talking about courtesy Gillespie Group: There is also a very cool rock sculpture at the entrance to the access drive. Since it's up on the hill, it's pretty prominent.

Yeah, I'm happy to hear this if plans have changed. Because there was a whole neighborhood task force announced when the new hospital was announced, because they were worried about trying to fill a large building built for a specific person in the m…

In a story on the capitol facilities director having three old maples taken down on the lawn, we learn an interesting development planned for the capitol square: The building’s master plan calls for planting an alley of two rows of trees around …

Looks like the vacation of Jerome Street between Penn and Holmes Street, and Holmes Street between Jerome and Michigan, passed during the August 10 council meeting, because I noticed today that the street signage has been changed from the regular gr…
