It would be great if they would clear the waterways, I don't think a canoe could make from East Lansing to the Grand on the Red Cedar right now. It is a shame as the trip is really pretty along the way, is it a Lansing thing or DNR responsibility?

I attended JW Sexton High School in the early '70s, after attending the modern '60s Dwight Rich JHS which also had some nice features, like a sunken garden around a huge oak tree in the front and another garden in the center or building. The auditor…

I wonder if the state could provide funds the clear the waterways through the area. Seems like a super DNR project! Or maybe the local parks and rec. department should have a waterway petrol boat with equipment that could regularly lift the logs out…

Behind Bordy [complex] is just the way I described the area, it is the area that is now connected to the River Trail right behind the dorms on the southwest corner. Just drive down the Red Cedar Parkway, or Kalamazoo Street towards EL and the work i…

I saw this work being done yesterday and it just remined me of the Spartan Theaters that stood on that corner. Who thought a Rite-Aid and a bank would make more money than a theater [who knows maybe they did]? I did not live here when the Rite-Aid r…

I am not sure who is doing this project, but the woods on the north side of Kalamazoo behind Bordy have had all the underbrush along the river trail removed. They left all the big trees and have turned the space into an assessable green space; it lo…

Cool shot, I do like seeing the Blue Water! it looks like someone should be clearing all the logs away from the bridge.

It is interesting to note that this relatively recently built office building would be replaced with non-student housing. I could see a couple more office buildings being replaced with housing along Abbot, I believe that the building across the stre…

I was sort of thinking about what could be done with a house like this one, as you say there are many of them in the neighborhood. I was not advocating for these two to be restored. Homes of that age are becoming rarer here, and Lansing tends to kno…

It is a "hope for the best situation"; I would if I were Gary G. I'd want a beautiful exciting looking building to go up on this prominent corner that says my business is a great success and this is the kind of building, we could build for you. He d…

I could see the house being part of an entrance to the new building or like in New England they use the street side vintage houses for shops and restaurants, with the newer extensions, apartments or condos above and behind the street side buildings.

Oh, good I really did not want to see an illuminated sign facing the river. I will be looking for the work to continue and I'll let you know how it is going.

I could be wrong! but the surface of the NORTH facing outer wall of the north endzone scoreboard as it is now, is covered with black rectangle panels that look like they may be LED screens. They would be the same locations on the north endzone but w…

The new scoreboard project is progressing; this week crews installed the south facing board on the north endzone [facing the Red Cedar]. The Spartan icon is being replaced with what looks like an LED type screen, which I find disappointing as those …

While it seems a shame to tear down such old buildings in "Old Town" especially the house, however these places have really been neglected for many years so making way for new housing is the right thing to do. I would like to see a program that supp…

Great Pics! thank you. I believe that the new landscaping by the Farm Lane Bridge was just put in last week, it looks great! It looks like the "Greater Lansing's great graffiti artist" waited until school was out to tag the walls under this bridge. …

Here is my list of some local streets to repave, Baker Street, Moorse River Drive, High Street, Cesar Chavez, Hosmer Street, Hazel Street, Malcom X, West Kalamazoo, West Michigan, West Barnes Avenue, Olds Avenue, McPherson Avenue, Boston Blvd. and I…

It is kind of funny that Granger is inviting people to view the demolition, after all these years of being forced to look at this mess owned by the Grangers, now they want to celebrate finally tearing it down. If this was my company, I would not wan…

It is almost unbelievable to see all of these projects are actually happening, the fish ladder had become an eyesore imo, the plan looks great. It looks like this was always going to be an amphitheater but was never finished. It is cool that I have …

This shows Logan Street looking north. It is interesting to see that all the cars in this photo are American! There is a badass Camaro next to a Firebird, behind a Cutlass. Those early safety bumpers on the Olds look like an afterthought. It still k…
