Seems like maybe just asking might work, they do not seem to care much about that area.
-
The corridor the 127 is built on was called "The Pinetree Corridor" before they built the highway. That is easy to imagine as much of this area is still forested. Perhaps we could get the State plant[or let us plant] a forest of pine trees along bot…

MJ sent me a written apology, seems like he has some issues and was using this forum to work on them [I guess]. I don't blog or twitter much and this negative kind of thing really surprises me when it happens. I get a little more shook up than I sh…

Thanks for not insulting my square ass. Stop putting up BS and I'll forgive you. Peace to your "hip' ass as well!
-
Thank you maybe you need to take a break. Honestly, I am have not "gone after you", and it was your comment that anyone who disagrees with you is an idiot, big babies etc., that while I may have misunderstood your point of view on the environmental …

I hope that MJ will keep his opinions about others' observations on this page to himself from now on. No one here is an idiot. I was noting that the parking areas of Eastwood are configured kind of like streets and blocks possibly with permeable pav…

It looks like they place a metal frame and fill it with cement to form the walls??

The drain project it very exciting to me. It sounds like it is going to be beautiful and will be quite an attraction. I am looking forward to biking there, that will be so cool. I am not a skater/boarder but I am glad to hear the skate park is safe,…

Yes, it would great if there were no surface parking lots at all. Unfortunately, this is Lansing where it seems like parking lots will always be of the highest priority. At least the lots are in the rear not on Michigan Avenue.
-
I was wondering about that huge lot as well. Is it parking for the housing, or do they think they will need that much parking for visitors and shoppers? I would guess that this area is still in the flood plain so could be flooded without much damage…
-
This is good news that I think says this thing is going to be built. I also wish the design would be bolder more urban. I hope it does not end up looking like an office park, I do think it will be animated with more people than an office park as a l…

Looks like a '60s motel, I guess the market for "student beds" is endless.
-
Maybe I am getting ahead of things there. It could have been locating utilities or something like that, they were digging by the front drive. This was kind of a nice motel back in the '70s [I know a long time ago] I wonder what happened over there?
-
I was out to the PO and noticed some equipment and digging going on at this site today. I am hoping that means the beginning of this project. Up the street the new hospital site is really moving a long. The site seems huge. Big piles of dirt so far!
-
This depiction looks good. I wonder why they put out those other drawings a while ago just to see if we were paying attention? I think these facades will catch and reflect the sunlight from the west. It looks like a good balance of brick and glass.
-
This seems misguided and unfair. Is another brewery what we need in our public market? Why would the city want one operation out for basically the same kind of business replacing the one business that made it in that building? I have to wonder about…
-
Mayor Andy responded to a letter I wrote to him about Scott Woods, which was very nice. He said that what they are replacing is a "force main sewer" which is under pressure. It is 60 years old [60 is not that old!} and is at the end of its usefulnes…

I look at the stacks every day they are right outside my window and I have never seen this angle, but the logo is fine with me! Just a little basic. I have been wondering if they could use the cement stacks as a core/base for a building around the s…
-
The new logo is OK, but when I first saw it I did not think "oh that is a reference to the 3 smokestacks", they are all the same height for one thing. There is a jewelry company named Effy that uses a very similar font and logo. To me, if you are go…

Of course, I would like a much better design for this project. I was reacting to the drawings presented. The reality of the situation is something will be built on the former golf course. Why they ever started this whole development is another topic…
