  • I would actually recommend this building in the future when the elevators and boiler will have been repaired, and they reopen the pool and gym. It is a little scruffy around the edges, not every apartment has granite countertops, and I think the rea…
  • Thanks for the info about the new housing and apartment rehabs. I have the time so I often take creative ways through neighborhoods streets to get up to my favorite MMJ shop on the far north side, I do not need the speed of Cedar and Saginaw! It's w…
  • I would say in defence of The Fountain Place it has been a pretty good place to live these past few years, there was a really nice manager here who really did respond to issues, she actually cared about the residents and fostered a sense of communit…
  • Nearly everything that has happened this year in Lansing has been so unreal so upsetting at times and nearly all of the blame for this can be laid at the door of the present administration and its enablers in the Senate who are traitors [add Tim Wal…
  • I finally called about the sewer fumes that have been very strong these past few weeks. The city called back and explained that the fumes are a result of parts of the system being open while the sewer pipe lining is going on. This allows air to flow…
  • I was taking the High Street short cut to Lake Lansing Rd. and noticed that they were pouring foundations at two recently vacated lots on the east side of the street near the community center. It was a bit surprising to see what I think will be new …
  • I plan to write to the Mayor about this subject, meanwhile, they could put some portapotties a trash dumpster and some fire rings out there just to help a little. Why would this be such an outrageous idea is a good question? This could be a good pla…
  • Now, this is an impressive building! One of the best things was using the old coal fire power plant building, this feature really makes the building "feel like" MSU.
  • I see that I do not know that sophomores could live off-campus. Back in the old days if you were not from the Lansing area you had to live in the dorms or a "Greek House" for the first two years. Does MSU have the housing capacity for this? I have n…
  • There are many solutions for homelessness in general but when it comes down to individual people or cases like this it can be difficult to do the right thing for them and the neighborhood. One thing could be civilizing the camp into more of a "free …
  • A few notes from REOtown. The renovation of the office building on the corner of Elm And S Washington is looking good, along with replacing the panels around the windows they have installed some decorative blond colored wood panels on the corner of …
  • Thanks for the great maps I find such things very interesting. I have an 800ft+ bluff on my land up north on the far bank of the stream that passes through behind the cabin. Standing on the top the ridge cabin looks like it is "way down there" so I …
  • I saw an article about the renovation of a Masonic Temple in Downtown Kalamazoo on the M-live page. I think our Masonic Temple downtown would be a great place to turn into a hotel like in Kalamazoo. I hope our other Temple in Old Town turns our look…
  • I was thinking perhaps when they named Mt. Hope it seemed to be very much a "mount" while getting a horse and wagon up and over it there. I also thought the highest point was up Cedar Street near the Athena Dinner, I am going to take a drive to Nort…
  • The LSJ.com has another "5 Project to Watch" report. Nothing new except the timeline updates and reassurance that the projects are basically on schedule and going to be successful additions to Greater Lansing. It was noted that a law firm has alread…
  • I walked the River Trail to the west to Moorse Park for the first time since the construction projects finished. Just a few patches of new pavement on each side of the park bridge but they are in good spots that even out the trail there. Also a ston…
  • I think that would be interesting as well, like how Mt. Hope got its name. The street follows along the top of a "ridge" from east to west with the cemetery area possibly considered a "mount". You can really see the change in elevation at the Penn.…
  • It is good to see that this will be human space, not marijuana space. It looks like housing is where the developer's money is going right now. If someone was from a big city perhaps the building next to the viaduct might not be a big issue, before t…
  • The renovation of the "pump house"? next to the Cedar overpass on the north side has started, I noticed new windows have been installed. I will take the street that passes by there to get a better look next time. It is great to see this cool buildin…
  • I guess we are a city so "Stinky Lansing" problems go along with that. I have wondered if anyone else noticed these bad smell around town. My building's parking lot is right next to the river across from GM and sometimes especially in the summer it …
