The clock tower is one place I never went into at Sexton, it was off limits for students, did the tour take you into the clock tower? I believe the clock is keeping the correct time these days. There is a farm on Round Lake Road that has a barn wit…

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…

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…

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…

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…

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 …

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 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.
