Well there you go, they must have been reading my post! I hope it looks better than the depiction on the billboard sign!

Thanks for posting these photos. The trees did look nice. I wonder if they saved any of them? I always disliked the textured cement walled outdoor rooms they tried to create. They were a feature of indoor malls that did not translate to the outdoors…

Very cool photo! I did not know what year they took out the mall, I was thinking it was in the 90's. The trees look nice so they must have cut them down first thing!:}

It's true that Rutter Park could become an active neighborhood center when many more residents live right on that square. I could see small concessions more like push carts rather than food trucks, much better and more formal garden plantings, a par…

This is good news as it takes years sometimes from the announced plan and the actual construction. It might help "sell" the neighborhood if they took down the "for sale" signs and put up, "coming soon" signs. I read where Target[in EL] will be ope…

It is a bit contrived but better than some of the other developments. They somewhat resemble the three-deckers out east.

I saw a really great photo of the Logan Street bridge in1965 on the Lansing history facebook page. [I don't know how to transfer them here] Also some notes about the 70's N. Washington Square Mall and the artwork that was chosen to be there. People …

I saw an interesting program on PBS which profiles architects and their projects. The story that I thought somewhat related to Lansing was Ft. Worth. a vastly different scale of course, but they had a similar story a dying downtown suburban flight e…

I am really hoping for a great "urban" design for this development. The hotels being built around town right now are so underwhelming.

Yes, that is the thing that bugs me about these scooters, but I guess that is also the freedom that you can just ride to where-ever and leave it. They seem to do a good job of gathering them up at night around here, I think providing parking stands …

I think it is a good thing for this area to be under Lansing zoning and usage laws. I would like to see something like this happen on the east side. It seems like this fellow moved a lot of heaven and earth to make this happen to get on the ballet a…

Both of these notes are interesting, one that this big company wants to put offices in this little house, and the other building new duplexes in South Lansing! Both good things just kind of unexpected.

Two light issues over here in REOtown. Ever since my first night in this apartment, I have had to be sure and close my blinds because the signal light on the communications tower at the end of Hazel Street strobed bright flashes into my front window…

I was driving on I-75 south near Flint the other day when a drone flew right down the lane of traffic. I had never seen this before and I'm hoping it was for police use and not someone flying their toy over I-75. It does not seem like a great idea t…

I can see how they are a good way to get around town. I do not have a smartphone [just a dumb one!] so, I have noticed one thing I like about them, people have to hold on with both hands so they can not use their phones will driving!
-
All good points, thank you I'm "liking" them a bit more, they may have been packing them up for winter already. I don't see them on the corner on REOtown today.

I am wondering how most folks feel about the electric rental scooters that have invaded many corners of the city. It looks like fun, but I don't think I will be hopping on one any time soon. I have this both sides feeling, one side they are fun and …

Looks pretty nice for a storage business!

I do not know if it is the start of construction or just utility work but there was a big backhoe pulling up the pavement behind the Lake Trust building yesterday. It would be really great if this was the start of building there. Just around the co…

If you would like to catch the last of the autumn color Moores Park is very colorful right now with the grove of Maples there. The river is lower than I have seen it, there are new islands and bars of stones that have formed and have plants growing …
