It seems like some micro-managing here, I guess they finally jumped through all the hoops they needed to. Does this mean they are not building on platforms that allow the water to flow under the buildings? This may have already bee noted but I do no…

This is a great sight to see. Next, we need the downtown stretch rebuilt. Yesterday even though there was very light traffic, someone flipped their car at the Grand Ave exit. It seems like a lot of accidents happen right in that same area. I wonder …

I did write the mayor with several recommendations, and he said he would keep them in mind. I was thinking more formal with more gardens and landscaping where people might like to hold a marriage ceremony or pose in front of the working fountain for…

I think that there are a lot of nice things they could have done to improve this park and a playground was about the last. Honestly, if I see and hear kids playing there I will be happy, but I kind of hate when Lansing does stuff like this, erect th…

I spy out my window today that workmen are clearing out the old service station on the corner of S Washington and Elm. Looks like they may be collecting the tools etc that Pablo's left in there. I wonder if the building has sold? I am getting out o…

I noticed a project beginning in Rutter Park on Capitol Ave. It looks like the city is building a large playground in Rutter Park right in front of the fountain. I find this disappointing to build a playground in the middle of downtown in our only f…

I took Wood Road on my return trip from my cabin [thank God I got to go up it was so nice to be away from Lansing] where I noticed the new road on the north side of Eastwood is nearly finished. They installed some nice looking fencing, and it looks …

This site looks like a better fit for a recycling facility, it is about as out of sight as you could hope for. It would be great if the BWL turned their area into a parkland, I'm sure they will most likely plan to have an industrial park there.
-
I have been wondering about the BWL move to the west side. I have not been that way in a while, are they building a new complex over there? I have not noticed any construction at the S. Penn. site. It is an industrial site[ has it been vacant for ye…

This time of year is a great time to walk the River Trail, the Scott Woods section has a lot of beautiful wildflowers starting to bloom, the other day I found wild ramps growing they are one of the first editable plants to collect in the spring. The…

I took my sanity walk, out at MSU yesterday and noticed the new wood-framed building the was a power plant is nearly finished and is a really beautiful building, the contemporary design is very cool. Also, the new Music Provillian looks very nice wi…

I know it's not really a page for politics here, but I have to say that what I witnessed Wednesday was quite alarming. I was sitting here at my desk when about ten vehicles pull into the office building's parking lot next door. They all get out each…

Oh, I see, I was thinking of the fact that they were continuing the project with or without the MEDC funding. I think it is a good thing that they will try again that the first ruling seemed arbitrary to me. I know that the state may not see it thi…

The lsj.com has an article saying they have submitted plans to EL for a pretty nice looking mixed-use/office building on Albert at Evergreen. I like the contemporary design which looks bright and light.

I am happy to see this project is continuing without the subsidy from the state. It is kind of unbelievable that they want to build a brand new parking crater away from the other buildings. It seems like it would be cheaper to create a green space t…

I was out to the Post Office and took a look at this project. The separate groups of buildings have different roofs and siding treatments. Some on Collins have pitched roofs and the buildings farther back have the flat roofs as pictured here. The br…

What a great leader -rumpsky is! When he is history[hopefully he will be before we are!] the tribe and the city should try again. That would be a great way to get people going downtown again, and would also be a plus for conventions and groups pick…

This project had so many strings to pull it never had that "this is going to happen" feeling about it. The site was not the greatest place to put this casino. I am not sure where they would have found space for parking and etc... I think the corner …

If they were a city work crew I would write or call, the Connect-Lansing website gets a response very quickly, and I would write or call the Mayor he always responds in some way. It's great to get some work done but they should be safe or staying ho…

I believe I heard MDOT is thinking that this is a great time for roadwork due to the lack of traffic and that they were keeping workers protected. They noted the heavy traffic is a much greater danger to workers and they could keep them working at a…
