  • I also found a higher res rendering:
  • Bob Tresize said that there will be "big announcements about more development downtown in the next few weeks," in this WLNS story. I'm not holding my breath, but it seems about time for some big announement(s).
  • I drove by the sign in the dark, it was lit up and looked great.
  • This Capitol Gains article: $15 Million Stadium District Deal Sweetened, says that Briarwood, 5/3 bank, and the Chamber of Commerce will be moved in by the end of April. It also says the Great Lakes Chocolate Co. is opening a store there, and Gilles…
  • North Point is a two floor project in Frandor, I beleive I posted a rendering before, I'll try to find it. It's on the east end of Saginaw in Frandor, just west of Walgreens where the North Point office building is now. It's really nothing specia…
  • The reason it needs to be four lanes is because during both rush hours, and virtually any time during a weekday, all the traffic coming from the East and West travels through the one way stretches. That means A LOT of traffic, like I said I thik the…

  • Yeah, but Saginaw/Oakland are the only major east/west throughfare in the Lansing area, all the other roads have been chopped up too much to compensate, like Michigan, St Joe, ect... Either way they would have make one a 5 lane and one a three la…

  • There are footings in now, I'm not sure how many, but I see some along Kalamazoo at least. Hopefully we'll see steel rise in 1-2 months.
  • Saginaw/Oakland where they are one way are two of the busiest streets in the Lansing Area. At rush hour, or virtually any time during the day, during the week they are clogged with cars. There is no reasonable way to change them back into two ways w…

  • I was talking about modest height anyways, anything 6-12 floors would be nice to see, of course I'd much rather see it in downtown Lansing over EL given a choice.
  • What? Is there a new building going up or something?
  • I sure hope not, but I never remember there being a working Odeena site.
  • Yeah, the Lansing area will have two vibrant downtowns, I just hope EL can get some height.
  • I can't wait to see baseball season, when all the new businesses are open, and all the people are around. It's going to be a good year for downtown.
  • I heard it's on hold, possibly dead, which sorta sucks. But more than likely Old Town will still end up with some nice new construction within a few years. Also, A large "Project Funded by Bank of America" sign is in front of the old YMCA buildin…
  • I think City Center II will end up going forward without the residents support. The residents voiced legitimate concerns about the project at first, but now that they are still complaing they may get ignored altogether.
  • I wasn't too suprised Cornerstone closed, the guy who started them up live accross the street from me. It's really to bad though, they made their places so nice inside, someone else already has an opening soon sign at their downtown location. Als…
  • As of yesterday they had resumed work on this project.
  • Just FYI things are coming along nicely at the Stadium District, the cornices are nearing completion and they have begun putting up signage.
  • They are expanding the parking lot to attract an office tenant for the space next to the North Precinct, I think there was a Captiol Gains article about it awhile back.
