  • In this weeks City Council Agenda there is an application by Knight Kap to have an outdoor dining area, not exactly big news but it will be nice to see more of that along Michigan Ave. Also, there is the Development Agreement for Market Place, th…
  • I don't resize my pictures, photobucket usually does automaticaly, somethings screwed up...

  • I agree, which is why I think that it's important for the city do Washington Sq all the way to 496 ASAP, rather than doing the 200-300 blocks in 2010 and the 400-700 blocks in 2013. To me that's too long given the condition of Washington, especially…

  • I beleive it's facing main, but I'm not sure.
  • I don't beleive I've ever posted this before, it's the hotel that used to be where Deluxe Inn is now. It was almost as ugly as Deluxe Inn, but at least it was somewhat unique.
  • That's a good idea, one other thing I had forgotten about, have you thought about adding a "Links" section to the site.
  • It looks like the Michigan Electric Building on Washington in REOtown is being rehabbed, all the windows are out as of yesterday.

  • That's great to hear, I remember the part through Old Town being particularly bad. They should really use that plastic decking, it's (almost) no maitnence and can handle being submerged.
  • You said they replaced some of the boardwalk? The shape of the boardwalks has always dissapointed me. Even the boardwalk next to the Lansing Center was getting pretty bad last time I saw it. Some have holes and loose boards among other problems.
  • I agree. I think they should also sell Kalamzoo Plaza (street and park), to be developed. In the more distant future I think the Kalamazoo Bridge should be replaced with a lower one that allows a line of sight across the river in both directions, ot…

  • I wish the city would act like they care about the river trail, especially since they tout it so much. I haven't walked the river trail in a couple years, I wish I could get myself to use it more often. It really is a great asset for Lansing.
  • Here's a LSJ article on the boat rental/resturaunt place near Cherry Hill Park: Venture would bring kayaking, entertainment along Grand River It finally gives an exact location, a vacant lot on the northwest corner of Hillsdale and River. I looke…

  • Here's a pic from just a couple minutes ago, not bad progress for 4-6 hours of work, I hope work continues at a good pace. Since I work only one block away from here, I should be able to post construction updates regularly also.
  • They are putting the steel up pretty quickly, I'll try to get a pic today or tomorrow.
