I beleive their next project will be an administrative/classroom building, at least thats what I've been told. That project's timeline would be unnaffected by the West Wing since that is supposed to be all for hospital use.

I think the target demographic is the same as previous Whitehills developments, upper-middle class to upper class people. I think this development is actually likely to be successful though. I've already heard of several other projects on this now b…

A story in the City Pulse about how the new market WILL be year-round: Year-round market It also says that hotel chains have been inquiring about the property, specifically Mariott. It says that the hotels want to see the riverfront get developed…

It's not quite that far up, maybe 1-2 miles down from I-69 on the north side of Saginaw. You don't remember where the Super 8 Cinema was?

Now the question comes, what/when will Sparrow build next? I can't wait...

I'm glad you finally got some pictures of the progress on this, I keep procrastinating. Even with the building almost complete on the outside I still can't grasp what kind of impact it will have at the street level when the businesses all open. Also…

"They" is anybody, perhaps I should have said "someone." But when I say lifestyle center I want to see second floors on most or all buildings and I want to see the surface parking lots disappear in favor of a combination of retail/office/residential…

This looks like a major project, so I created it's own forum: Whitehills Town Center forum

It says in the listing that it will be a two floor building, but it does not say what will be on the second floor, so I would also assume it will be office. Even though this is a suburban style development with tons of surface parking, I'm really, r…

Yet another building going up in the Frandor area, this one will be two floors along saginaw and be almost 30,000 sq ft. It will be built between the Walgreens and the new building with the Starbucks. They will be tearing down an old two floor offic…

An article about this development in today's LSJ: In 'soft' market, new homes in E. Lansing spark interest

Maybe they are finally rebuilding or remodling the QD. They really need to, that store in particular needs it more than many. But virtually all the QD's are coming of age and need at least some updating.

Fixed^ The buildings I find most interesting are the ones in picture numbers 53, 54, 87, 99, 108, 110 It's sad to see at the end of this report they give a number of reccomendations about saving historic structures, including specifically ment…

I am moreso talking about the smaller neighborhood buildings, like houses, rowhouses and lowrise apartments, those are the most at risk. I think that most people are smart enough to try to save a 10 or 20 floor building of historic significant. Alth…

My main hope regarding Detroit is that they make every effort to save historic structures, it seems they're doing quite well right now, but if they sway from that the losses could be huge.

I was looking through CADL's website and found a few more pics: Thoman Mill - SW corner of Grand & Ottawa Michigan Ave bridge, pre 1870's Post 1870's Clarksmobile Plant, 231 S Grand, destroyed in 1906 by fire New Way auto …

I think what happened with this project was likely similar to what happenned to Stadium District. The developer got too excited and announced the plan in it's infancy. It seems that all the other projects announced in Lansing and EL have went throug…

I too wish that more companies like this would move downtown. But at least it will be creating more jobs and it will be a "green" facility.

I went to the State Library and looked up some pics also, but they charge a lot to get good quality scans, so sometime I hope to get to the CADL when their local history section is open. My main goal is still to get pictures of the westside of downt…

And finally the reason why I decided to create this post, I found some great pics of Old Town, before "urban renewal" and the North Lansing fire. These pics are from the I Love Old Town - Gallery. Auto Body works, where Sir Pizza is now. Lan…
