  • Thank for posting these pics, it's like Lansing broke some kind of ice and every project is becoming a reality. The fireworks shote are great too!
  • I drove down the fresh pavement the other day, after E Michigan by Frandor it feels like velvet, and I kind of sigh in disbelief that it has taken this long to accomplish the rebuilding of a couple of miles of urban roadway. I have been back in Lans…
  • More Chicken because there is never enough chicken! I guess.
  • In today's LSJ there is an artical about redeveloping the 600 block of E. Michigan. The drawings are pretty nice. I do like that they will be using the century old buildings and the idea of opening up the ally side.
  • Thank you for posting these pictures, they offer reassurance that this building is actually being built in these crazy days of daily crazyness.
  • Today while out on our building's outdoor deck which overlooks the campus, I saw that they were testing the new scoreboard on the south side of the stadium. The board looks much brighter, and sharper at least in the test patterns, and maybe even a b…
  • To me it looks several steps above any Lansing Project. I like the color depicted. It is disappointing that the new neighboring buildings will be so unexciting. I am still hoping the Ovation project will have some class.
  • Yea! more chicken, better be good, I live in the Caines neighborhood, that place packs them in every day. it is quite a tourist attraction; there are always groups visiting EL and MSU lining up to get in there. Why? don't ask me! I it is so average!…
  • In this week's City Pulse, there were hearing notices for the Rescue Mission buildings on E. Michigan. Are the old buildings going to be repurposed or are new buildings being planned? I remember hearing that the buildings were being sold, and the Re…
  • Another sign of this building is really going up! Thanks.
  • I am wondering what year this map was made. I have seen the "Lansing Theater" in photos of Michigan Ave, which must have been the '50s. I remember the Michigan and Gladimir [sp] theaters and there was an adult theater on N Washington in the '60s, I …
  • The LSJ.com has an interesting photo gallery of some of the historical landmark buildings in the area, the photo of the Olds Tower/Boji Tower looks so 1930's modern. I thought I posted this note.
  • Is Ganger really building new buildings at this site? Or is these one of those six years from now situations?

  • thanks for that information
  • Outside my window is the "Hop Cat" building [it has another name]. I don't know when it was built, but it has a brick facade on west side with a paneling only on the top floor. The front does have the paneled material, but it also has ceiling to flo…
  • I guess I got the idea there would be new sidewalks streetlights and trees from the older drawings. The outside materials look like the materials they used on The Landmark [student housing] on Grand River in EL i.e. cheap. The apartments on the sou…
  • The construction fences have been removed from Campbell Hall and the building looks like it is brand new. It should be ready for students to move in when they return in late August. They have also installed large green and white place name signs at …
  • I had not been over there in a while, so I took a drive to see if anything was happening on that corner. I found that the school building had been demolished, but everything was about the same. The shopping plaza on the northwest corner has been imp…
  • I am happy to hear people do care; it could be such a nice attraction for downtown. We would go downtown in the early evenings to watch the fountain's light and water show when I was a kid in the '60s. Even back then the park had a 'reputation"; in …
