These are convertible-reusable strip malls freedom fries... Only they also have 3 plus floors of office/residential space above them. This is not only more eye appealing, it is a draw for residents and customers who will be spending money, and …

I too would love to see these projects move forward, but also would like the labor to be as local as possible. It would be nice for Gillespie to try to use lansing area contractors wherever possible. I really dont care if they are union or not. I…

somebody told me Grand Rapids was getting it. Unsubstantiated rumor, but thats what Ive heard.

It would be a bit of a logistical nightmare to put a full blown grocery store in there mainly due to lack of semi trailer access. The loading dock area is currently in the southwest portion of the building, and trying to maneuver an eighteen wheel…

Approval of the site plan amendment gives Strathmore another 12 months to secure financing and move on with the project. That last sentence right there says so much about this change in plans...

Have you been by since? Im curious if they might still be on. I haven't heard of anything, but will ask around. When I win the lotto and buy it, I'm goung to count the mezzanine as a floor, so I'll say it was the third too.

Id be willing to bet something is going in there. Most landlords will leave a vacant space as is, in case of a tenant that has a similar need, thus negating buildout costs. If they have gutted it, its likely there is a buildout in process.

RE: all those building in the flood plain. I run by there alot and have noticed a line fairly high up on the Olds museum building I believe, that shows the waterline from an early 1900's flood. Speaking of the Olds museum, no mention in this …

Im sure its a functional building. But, it NEEDS some brick work. Ill throw in some money on a fundraiser.

saw a blurb in the business section today saying that Michigan Brewing will be opening for lunch starting next week (11-2). They cant sell beer yet, but expect to get their license the first week in Sept.

Yummy.

Im "likely" voting Bernero if he runs again. I have issues with his brashness and tendencies to grandstand, but that is outweighed by the results I've seen in the time he has been mayor. He has truely picked up where Hollister left off. Not sayin…

coolbreeze, You might find it enjoyable to sometimes just read without posting a response. I always try to think about what Im posting before I hit the submit button. That way I can ensure I am contributing to the conversation at hand, as op…

There will most likely need to be a major renovation to the Knapps building to make it functional for today. That might be a good time to replace the windows. I know that there are restrictions on changes to the exterior of the structure with it b…

I can hardly wait for this project to start. Thanks for the recent info LMich. @Coolbreeze: I think this already is a safe city. Not just in Michigan, but in the Midwest for sure...

It most definitely was not a Holiday Inn originally. The Holiday Inn used to be what is behind the current Belle Tire just north of I-96. I want to say it was a Days Inn originally, and at some point the two companies swapped buildings. I wil…

The city seems to be doing a good job of keeping the trails plowed. I can only speak for the southern section though...
