There has apparently been a website out for the project, but I'm just now finding it. It seems that the renderings they have for the exterior are old?

The Lansing Economic Area Partnership is reporting that the brownfield for the Michigan Realtors HQ proposal on Durant Park was approved at Monday night's council meeting. All I can find on the agenda is that a public hearing was scheduled, but wit…

The northwest corner of Kalamazoo and Hosmer is vacant, which is why I was a bit confused about what you meant. The one building in from the corner on Hosmer (Industrial Pattern of Lansing, Inc.) doesn't have any projects listed for it, but the att…
