I agree that approving such a business there would be wrong, especially since there is so many empty lots, already industrial just a block west that are not on Michigan Ave... I wonder why these plans even come up from time to time, it seems like it…

Yes, I have a lot of family living in FLA:{ so I know that Stanford is at least is a good distance northeast of the major attractions. The highways are always packed, and they are scary [to me] and huge, so the drive could make a long and unpleasant…

I was thinking that they owned the land down to that club. It is kind of funny that I actually stayed in the little house next to the Alano Club way back in the early '80s. My friends from MSU and Kellogg Center rented the house for their last year.…

I read in the LSJ.com that Lansing will getting a new airline with low fares to Orlando, and with more flights possible in the future. It is a new airline called Avelo Airlines. It was noted that hundreds of passengers from Lansing have Orlando as t…

Where is the Stadium North Project being built? Is it north of the old Roma Bakery? I have seen a lot of new signage for the big two change downtown, I wonder when they are planning to do it?

What's with the self-storage places? I wonder why it is so profitable to go into a business where there are already hundreds, if not more, storage units available for rent in the Greater Lansing area. We even have a nine-story tall storage unit buil…

The blue paint matches the blue in the stairway mural on the N. Grand parking ramp, so perhaps they will do some sort of art or murals. The mayor and who ever plans these things does not seem to have much imagination, I read where the mayor said the…

I took a westside trip over to Frances Park and found that the River-Trail extension has been completed. I think it looks good while understanding they did take out a lot of trees to build it. There is a nice wide trail starting at Cambridge Road do…

I saw downtown today and noticed that they seem to be painting the corigated metal siding on the ped. bridge blue instead of replacing it with new siding. I was thinking they would do a half assed rehab I hope the rest is better.

There is a small depiction of the building in the week's City Pulse. Looks pretty good.

I noticed some exterior work starting on the "skyway" over the river downtown. I have not seen any depictions of what the new bridge will look like. I am hoping for at least "not bad" in any case it will have to be better than the '80s airport ramp …

The steel workers "topped" the credit union building with a flag and pine tree, and the exterior construction phase has begun. I am happy that it will be a first-class building, but from the north the building looks like it was split in half because…

I drove by the Capitol to check out the new Heritage Hall entrance, it looks really nice. And it is located right next the famous door that the "R electors" tried to enter which was seen around the world! I was also impressed with the great lawn beh…

This looks beautiful! It is nicer than I was expecting, with a lot of interesting features and displays to look at, I was thinking that it would be more like a lobby hall, I look forward to seeing it in person.
-
That is great news! That thing looks like an abandoned airport loading ramp from the '80s. I hope they have some cool plans for the replacement.
-
At The Temple building they have begun installing windows and replaced the cornice [the right word?] around the top with vintage style moldings. That looks good, the windows are kind of basic, and there is a cement structure behind on Cedar St. that…

That is interesting news, now I will another option for lunch, there are so many in downtown EL which is fun. Another chicken wings place is opening on Grand River called Detroit Wings. It looks like we will have the chicken wings market covered. Ou…

I noticed the crews were erecting vertical steel beams today at the credit union site. Perhaps the pre-cast cement phase is over. The brick pattern exterior is at least a bit interesting with the bricks having different glazes from shiny to mat fini…

The credit union building grows taller each day put together with Legos type slabs that I think [I hope] are at eight stories now. it will be interesting to see how they put the rest of the building together, it sure takes up a lot of sky already.

I think the fish ladder could be a really great outdoor amphitheater, the bowl shape is already there just ad seats. The generator building could be the stage production/back-stage area. Another idea would be some sort of fountain or water feature w…
