I'm assuming we should see some new plans/renderings soon, if not at todays press conference.

The 500 block likely won't see any major development until they do the CSO/streetscape work in 2013 (from Kalamazoo to 496.) Also, just FYI, the parking lot just north of the Downtown Party Store was sold to Abraham Realty, and I've been told that t…

I guess there's that one too, but the point is still the same, vacancy rates are extremely low. That helps to drive further development.

I just thought I'd let everyone know that a wireless store will be opening at 408 S Washington in October. I don't know how well they will do, but this would fill the only remaining storefront on Washington, and thats great news.

I should also mention that the origional cost for this was supposed to be $5-$6 billion. That seems like a more realistic cost for this kind of project, unless it's a completly different project.

There was a story in todays LSJ about the possibility of a new particle accelerator at MSU. This would be a huge project, and MSU has a good chance at landing it. If MSU wins, isotope project could add jobs, impact region

I noticed it just the other day, I'm glad to see it gone though. Also, theres a story in the LSJ on the old Michigan Refridgeration Warehouse on Kalamazoo - Dispute delays demolition of site of '06 fire on Kalamazoo

I'm very optomistic about the business in Cherry Hill park, despite the lack of details. It sounds like a great concept, I just hope it will be visible enough to do well. The pedicab, at $3 for 2 blocks is impractical, and will not survive, unles…

I don't see how NuUnion building a new branch here isn't good progress, this is a suburban part of to I don't see how a suburban styled building causes any problems. That Cedar/Penn/96 intersection is huge mess, both it's own design and the properti…

I'm glad to see that this building will have some good height. It should add to the skyline quite a bit.
-
Well the listing describes it as a 10th floor terrace, theres something more to it, I guess we'll have to wait to find out. And I think they are counting the penthouse as a floor, since it has locker rooms, bathrooms, ect...
-
I think the walkouts are at each end of the building, coming out from the second to top floor.

I support the millage, but I think we need a significantly larger Impression 5 than what is proposed.

It's not going to be a retails store, at least not entirely. It is supposed to be a bar, open until 2am on the weekends.

There are two articles of note in the City Pulse this week: This one is about the new city market: I don’t feel comfortable This one is about a groups push to turn Knapps into a performing arts center: Performing downtown

An article from Capitol Gains: $22.5 Million Capitol Towers Still Rising in Downtown Lansing Basically the only thing of significance they say is that groundbreaking is still scheduled for Fall, that is of course great to hear. I'll still be keep…

On WILX they said they expect to break ground in 6-8 months. I think thats realistic, given that we know this project has already been in the works for quite awhile.

Some pictures of the progress from today:

I think this is a great project in almost every aspect. I like the design, it's nice but not eccentric and it looks like it will give an imposing feel to the street. It has ground floor retail, they put the building on top of the parking to give the…
