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…

These projects look very impressive in this visualization. I have to wonder what the rents are going to be. I was thinking while watching the video that it is ironic to see this huge building going up on a rather small lot, compared with all the lar…

I took a bike ride on the new trail link behind Brody, it is only about 20 feet long, but it is a more convenient connection from campus to the trail around the Red Cedar development [is there a name for this development yet?] ponds and on to the La…

I am still amazed that E Michigan in front of Frandor has not be repaved, does anyone know why it has been delayed for so long or when we could look forward to the end of the moon scaped pavement. I know I should call and find out but maybe someone …

I saw an exhibit at the Broad Museum which included displays from minority communities in Lansing. This included some photos and stories about the building of 496. They displayed a story about the video "They Even Took the Dirt" about the neighborho…

It is interesting to see the year-built stone with the Preuss name on the building. I wondered why that building had been left behind in the Old Town revival, it is a good location.

The work on Campbell Hall is nearly done on the outside, the new windows look great, and they just finished installing copper finish around the chimney tops, everything architecturally correct, the same goes for the museum. I find the most interesti…

I noticed the building at Kalamazoo and Pennsylvania [ a long-time eye sore] has been renovated at least on the outside with the sort of common steel and rock faced brick style of facade you see these days. I think there were four front doors so may…

I cannot really remember if the Sears Store was flooded even during the big floods. I would think that he could just build on top of a berm like across the street or even build on top of a parking structure like the Red Cedar project was originally …
