Workforce housing is housing aimed at people making 60-120% of median income.

Rendering of the SkyVue courtyard on their FB page. And 47 likes! Future tenants, I wonder?

I definitely don't like the whole sense that keeping Michigan Avenue in a proper state of repair should be a special project! It is to the city's great shame that they cannot keep perhaps the major road of the city in proper repair with normal moni…

Are we talking about the old water tower (I think) that is part of the Gannon Building? Yes, I have no idea why that was ever part of the building either... not sure how old that building is, but I didn't think it was that old.

I'm not saying they aren't nice, but the price people are paying for these 2-bedroom apartments downtown continues to shock me. We had a 2-bedroom condo in Brentwood Park, about a mile north of downtown on Saginaw, and slightly bigger than these pl…

Article in ELI about 300 Grand, includes some internal shots. Here.

East Lansing Info's reporting is a little more optimistic.

PS - why not build up to the corner? I'm not sure they can mind you, because I think that land was reserved by the city to (possibly some day) add wide yield lanes between Saginaw and Abbot. But it seems increasingly unlikely that will ever happen…

Can't tell if this would happen, but as someone who used to live up that way I would 100% approve of removing the high rock fence toward the NE corner of the property. Made it so there was zero visibility between cars leaving the station and anyone…

Isn't Powerball $127 million tonight? I don't normally play, but given the circumstances...

Yeah, to suggest instead an express route to an airport that just doesn't offer that many flights (and in an age where ridesharing is easier than ever) is just strange. I actually have been picked up by a bus at the airport before - the driver almo…

In other areas it would INCREASE the number of places peds could cross, like that delightful 1.4 mile stretch between Harrison and the interstate that currently has zero crosswalks.

Update.

Nice but, how do you publish an article in August 2016, which says construction (on the Red Cedar Renaissance) is expected to begin in June 2016, and it hasn't?

Say... what happened with the Howard Johnson on Trowbridge? Noticed passing by today that it looked closed. Found a review online from someone who stayed there on January 31 of this year who was told that was the last day the hotel would be open, …

Nice. I did not know about the retail either. Surely makes sense to put as much retail as possible around MSU.
-
A minor point, but not sure what you mean by three transit lines - the current CATA map indicates Eastwood is served by routes 16 and 13, both originating in downtown Lansing. Route 25, originating at MSU, USED to go there, and they even held a con…

Oops, higher-res and not on Facebook, look at dat.

Noticed Skyvue, which apparently has a Facebook page, posted a construction timelapse. In related new I think I understand why the adjacent Sears water tower got a solar panel.

Reading the book "Street Fight" by NYC's former transportation commissioner, I was struck by the fact that she didn't spend a lot of time holding charrettes and trying to satisfy every member of the public ahead of time - an impossible task, as she …
