  • I think I know who you may know the guy talking the police are talking about, some days he is kind of mild some days and some days he would be aggressive calling me names etc. I think that although some people should not use cannabis or relay on it …
  • I saw an announcement about the renovation of the Washinton Apartments on S. Washington Ave. The LHC is going to rehab the building into affordable senior housing. I looked at that building for years, it really is unique in Lansing, and I hope they …
  • LSJ has an artical about the planned psychiatric hospital to be built on the site of Eastern HS. The depiction looks pretty nice, a modern sleek mainly brick building. There was also a depiction of the garden walkway with two arches from the old sch…
  • What a nice day you had for these photos, thanks for posting them. The new City Hall is still looking underwhelming. I am hoping the brick facade will help. Is parking planned for the old dry cleaners building? that would make a nice green space on …
  • I agree with you, it seems like Lansing should have a nice modern facility, and the fact that the present terminal still functions is not really a good excuse for not updating or totally replacing the terminal. I wonder if it the oldest terminal of …
  • It may be that the current building is adequate for their needs today. I don't know why it should be such a big deal to build a new terminal to go with the new jet-ways. I noticed an artical about Delta adding Boston flights from Traverse City, so I…
  • While going for a walk at Scott Woods I noticed that crews were tearing down the old Lansing General Hospital. My Mom used to work there. It was very large hospital; it seems strange that it was no longer useful. I forget how "old" I am sometimes as…
  • I read that the airport is getting funds for new jetways. It is interesting that there are more funds and flights on the way after the near death of our airport during the pandemic. Now if we could get a new terminal building it could be just like a…
  • I think if the BWL could have located the sub-station just to the south on one of GM's precious parking lots, we would be happy with a lovely park at that corner. I think your point is that we should be really carefully consider the location of thes…
  • Thanks for the post, I would rather see something that would be a better fit for the location as well. Like I say I don't really know very much about these issues that have been brought up. What kind of exhaust do fuel cells emit? Is it dangerous or…
  • There was more information about the Kalamazoo St. data center in the LSJ today, which includes the that original plan was putting the data center in the Cooley Law School's former library building! I had not heard that before. You can read it, but …
  • Over on Kalamazoo and Grand the northern larger apartment building [ I forget the name]is being clade with stone faced bricks and clapboards which look good. It is a relief that they are building a more attractive building than was illustrated. City…
  • The full floors have been built out from the core up to the fourth floor, which really show how big the building is. Very exciting!
  • I would be against their proposed design, which sounds like it should be next to a freeway exit. I wonder if they could rehab the house that is behind the storefront. I have seen McDonalds in urban settings that fit into the neighborhood with nicer …
  • Wow big building! I have heard that Marsels is going to be one of the retail tenants. since there is really no place to buy men's cloths except for Spartan gear and a small department in Target, I guess that is a good thing. Fortress is the look in …
  • That is an interesting idea, another international train connection via Port Huron [which there was for a long time] could add some trips to the Blue Water. Train vs Plane when you get off the train you are in Chicago!
  • I thought the design is maybe a half a step more interesting than most. It will be great to see people living there instead of a surface parking lot. I have noticed this sort of mediocre style of apartment buildings in a lot of cities on the web-cam…
  • There may have been a gas station before the Rite-Aid building was built, the "sunken" station was where the new Marathon and mini-mart is now. I think there may have been stations on three corners in the '70s, back in the day there were gas station…
  • It was reported in the LSJ that United Airlines will return to Lansing in early May. They will offer four! flights to Chicago. This is good news as it will increase the number of seat and times available for Lansing travelers. Many friends of mine h…
  • EL is going to consider the new service station/restaurant at the site of the closed Rite-Aid store on E Saginaw and Abbot. If it has to be another gas station, [there is brand new one across the street] this one looks OK and having a mini-mart and …
