I was by here Monday, and it is further along towards finishing. I am impressed by how nice the renovation looks, I think it will be a great address and will fill up quickly.

Opps I was commenting on an old post.

I agree it is a downturn that is possible especially with the current "leader" in DC. What gives me a little hope is despite all this trade war nonsense the economy has kept rolling along quite well. I would think with different leaders and retreati…

I have not been in yet, but the Sleep Walker Spirits and Ale House looks really nice and the menu also looks interesting. They put up a nice new facade and awning next door at the Wheel House pottery, and there is a nice new "gateway" in front of th…

I hope they build something that actually has the riverside in the plan, it seems like there would be a nice view from that high bank.

It is interesting to think that the huge parking lot around Sears was one big reason many folks left downtown forever and now it sits there a huge empty parking crater. That lot is a very large area, I could see a whole neighborhood of housing and r…

On Hazel Street, the "Wing" building has been cleared out to the joust throughout the whole building. Four or five large propane tanks have been installed outside I guess to assist with the demolition process. I believe that all the former tenants h…

OK, It's just a kind of silly confusing name to me, I'd want to make sure everyone knows it is a restaurant if it is open to the public. I do think it is one of only two restaurants in Lansing that has a river view, I would include that fact in the…

It is the lot that is between the apartment building[on the north east] and the City Market building that was free for market customers. I knew what M.P. stands for it just sounds like the name of a social club, not a restaurant. I think naming a bu…

I was downtown today and noticed the bar in the City Market building has vacated their space there and all of the City Market's "free" parking" spaces now have signs that say "M.P. Social parking only" all others towed. I thought that lot was city p…

It's too bad they really wrecked that store with the last renovation whenever that was. The whole place looks like it is in a basement from the inside. Retail is tough these days but this sort of unraveling of the real department stores is about rea…

I read a small article about the Waverly Golf Course project getting started in the LSJ, it said work would start soon and the developers were looking at this as a ten-year project and that they are very committed to this project. Let's hope so!

I have seen historical photos of the day Sweden switched from driving on the left as they do in England to driving on the right as we do here, it was quite a mess! I hope the same does not happen on the big day when we go back to two-way streets dow…

I drove down the newly paved South Capitol Avenue!, it is such a great improvement it's like we became part of the United States again! As a person who grew up here, the condition of that street was a score of embarrassment and shame to me. Of cours…

I was just reading about all the towns in the area that have banned MJ sales. Seems like the local officials are the ones who get to decide this issue even though in most places a majority of people voted to legalize. So all the folks from those tow…

It will look great coming into Lansing from the south! Did you go to school in Lansing? I think my interest in this sort of thing started in the 7th-grade life science class at Dwight Rich. We learned about the landscape of Lansing and the differen…

Thanks, the River Street tower is different than most. It looks like the new hospital is at a slightly higher elevation in the photo, maybe this is part of the "Mount Hope" area of higher ground. If you are traveling east on Penn. Ave stopping at Mt…

OK, I guess that isn't the comm.- tower on River Street in the photo. I often wonder why some towers just have blinking red lights and some have brighter flashing white lights. Seems like the WILS tower is as tall as River Street but it has red ligh…

Great picture it makes Lansing look hilly! Do you work in the Grand Tower building? I see that awful comm. tower in the foreground. At least the lights are better on that thing and it doesn't strobe flash anymore. The new hospital looks kind of &quo…

Is this development group Urban Systems with a new name? I think they have some of the same drawings for proposed buildings on their web page. I am happy to hear about the Holmes School, there has been even more vandalism and broken windows there la…
