I don't know if the city takes care of this area but the Cedar Street & 496 area is one place that seems be be getting less care each year. It looks like they did at one time as there are flowers and plantings that would look nice if they cleane…

I was a tourist in my own town yesterday! I went to the Olds museum which was very nice I thought. I enjoyed seeing cars and trucks that my family and friends helped to build. I also liked the old photos of the plants around Lansing. They really ref…

I noticed that as well, I have also noted that the clock has been wrong or not working many days this past year. Maybe they are fixing the whole thing, I hope so!

My sister lives in San Francisco and her house is worth nearly 2 million! It's just a normal house but it's on the top of a hill so that adds about a half million. My question has been who can afford these prices? What do they do for a living? It se…

I received an invitation from the Capital Region Community Foundation for an event they are having at the former Beer Grotto to share "exciting news about their plans for Downtown Lansing and Michigan Avenue". They are the folks who had the banners …

I sure hope I never see the day Lansing becomes an expensive place to live. I like the fact that you can buy a really nice house for less than 100k. Out east it has become so expensive that is how much a parking space might cost. The thing about you…

I have not set that up either.

LSJ reports that they are going to redevelop the back of the old Michigan Theater. That will be really great if they do. They would bring a facade to the Grand Ave. side of the building to the street. Just an little note about the Michigan Theate…

I could see an historical art and design museum somewhere downtown, I have heard that Lansing does have a collection of art that has been donated in storage some where. I could be wrong about that. I could see historical art as part of a Lansing His…

I have often wondered why the museums which started in those one time industrial buildings as almost a hobby museums, never grew out of those buildings, even while being quite successful. I could see a museum/education/business authority that could …

I do like that you are brain storming about ideas that would add activity and people to places that are empty most of the time. I think having baseball and softball tournaments at Cooley Stadium would be great way to fill the place with more activit…

I remember that sign. I saw it on visits home back in the 80's? It was a silhouette and the tower was depicted out of scale with the rest of the sky line. It was the only building back then, at LCC that was identifiable as part of the sky line, I th…

I thought it was just a smoke stack for the welding classes, I went to L.C.C. when they built that building, no one knew what is was then either. I'm glad to see it removed, and I would also like to see that rope patterned cast cement removed from t…

I went to the new bar in Old Town "The Grid", I really like the room,the windows are beautiful, they made a very cool space for the bar and the games. I only played the pin ball machines, and was thinking the whole time that I should be putting thes…

Maybe they intend to keep the ally between the two buildings.

It is still difficult to get a feel for this from these depictions. The east facing facade has no windows, and the "U"' shape seems odd. What is that an air shaft? What is in the middle and then the back building has windows looking into the middle.…

One other note, they painted the new affordable house on Elm Street bright blue, with a red front door. Looks OK. I hope they cover the open space under the house, that would help even more.

Work has begun on the "Under the Bridge" project I noticed the other day. They were starting to paint the murals on the side walls. I was beginning to wonder if this would be one of those things that was talked about that never happened, it is very …

I do like the look of this design, I think this is the Albert Street side, it looks more like the brick faced buildings in the area.They have described it as a two ten story buildings on the radio news, and there looks to be another building next to…

Looks great let's build it!
