Is the container apartment court inside the warehouse on Hazel and Hosmer still happening? That would bring some people to the south.

That is interesting news. This area may be moving in a good direction, Art's Pub has been a great success, the food is really good there and they are always busy. There is a great skyline view from their dining room. I could see this part of the tow…

Looks really great. This kind of gives me an idea what the BWL could do with the Eckert Plant.

In a sculptural sense, they are graceful if not gigantic, and I understand and applaud the reason they are there. I am hoping they do not go further north then Clare, where the landscape changes to "Up North".

Here on S.Washington, there is overnight parking allowed[I don't know if it is offical] on the 900 blocks. The street is very wide here so it causes no problems. I think that overnight parking could work on many streets. A resident only parking syst…

I hope you are correct in saying perhaps they will not be there very long. They seem to have gone up very quickly and easily maybe they can come down as fast. I just went by there today and the new ones are so huge, and I have not heard anything lik…

This is just a point of interest [I hope] while traveling up to my cabin up north on US 127 I have been watching a new array of windmills being erected between Alma and Mt. Pleasent on the eastern side. They are much larger than the older array near…

Wow, I think this could be a good development for the Greater Lansing area as I am trying to think about all the developments going on just outside the city limits. I believe that most folks who do not live here call the whole place Lansing. There…

Yes linking our three classic downtowns with a free and easy shuttle would be even better. Maybe add an east-west loop through the outer Capitol Complex and crossing the north-south loop downtown and going out to Sparrow and back. My bright idea abo…

Well, I was talking about the view from street level looking at the new building going up now. I was waiting for the Flyer bus at the hotel looking at the construction's progress and it looks to me like the sun will be behind the building soon after…

I was in downtown E.L. the other day and it became apparent to me that Ann Street is the street that will feel and look the most changed. From the street, the frontage on Grand River is going to have a similar look with the brick and glass facade so…

Yes, I agree! this building looks so great, and really successfully references the academic buildings of the old school. It makes me happy to see a developer building something that looks better then it has to.

I picked up my sister from Cali. at the Flyer stop in E.L., she went to MSU in the 60's and she was quite shocked to see E.L. 2018. We drove back down Michigan Ave. and I pointed out what may be the last elm tree of the elms that once lined the medi…

Wow so cool, I really like that concept and putting that large area into public use would be great. When I grew up nearby you could always hear the drop forge pounding all night they would also open the doors in the summer and you could see the spar…

Oh, Thank you! It would be so nice to have a year-round green space that would be illuminated at night in the winter, lighting up the grey nights.

Wrote Andy today! I also suggested using the steel frame of the barn to support glass walls and create a Winter Garden/Butterfly House. This would return the area to parkland and be a beautiful attraction for tourist and locals. I think the develope…

Thank you I will write to the Mayor, I was just brainstorming about the City Market thinking about a building that in its self would be a good draw.
-
It is a great building, I did not remember that is was part of the modern motel they build next door. These days I would like to see them take better care of it. The derelict Y building next door does not help. I was also wondering why the fountain …

I think they could use the steel structure as a base for a Fancy Barn, maybe take ideas from the best Michigan barns or [I know they would never do this] add a bit of fantasy like a storybook design, or even take a look at some of the historic fancy…

There must be lots of people who like the "idea" of the City Market but did not shop there. I can not really understand why anyone would have an emotional attachment to that building, it always made me sad to go in there seeing how empty it had beco…
