Lmich, I would assume that either the info off the agenda is the most recent, or the tax credits are transferable to different properties the MDA may consider. I sure hope that the MDA moves to an expanded Capitol View.

I'll be glad to see a Famous Taco downtown again, they are one of my two favorite resturaunts. Also, they can better sustain business because of deliveries and they are open unitl 4 on the weekends, which will help the downtown bar crowds. As for…

Supposedly there is a wine bar considering moving into the Stadium District, its not for-sure yet, and I'm not sure exactly what that is. I do not beleive it's related to the liquor license as I do not beleive its that far along and furthermore woul…

According someone I spoke with in the know, the lender on Capitol View would not allow additional floors to be built on the structure, not a money problem or anything, they just didn't want it done for whatever reason. He said that they were looking…

Theres two ways it could pan out, I get a personal loan from my investor(s) and do the project myself, or my primary investor would be a "silent partner" in an LLC, we may seek another investor for a loan only, and I would still do the project mysel…

Just a friend who also owns a cigar shop downtown. You need a suprisingly small down payment, in percantage anyway, to get a loan. About 15% is all thats required, or about $660k-850k on the $4.5-5.5 million.

Just FYI, I am looking at the feasability of taking on this project with a friend (or friends) as financial backing. I met with the listing agent today at the building, but I found out little more than what we already know. I have a meeting on May 7…

I doubt their holding out is noble in it's motivation, I think they are simply waiting for East Village to get built and hope for higher property values. It's a gamble, but it could potentially pay off big.

In and LSJ interview with David Ferguson, when he's asked "Whats next for you?" he responded: "I'm looking at other parcels on the river in the greater Lansing area. I'd like to make some announcements in the next few months. It'll be more residenti…

The liquor license listed is in escrow so I don't beleive that the business that it is from will be attached to it. I believe the dance and additional bar permit are new applications, not transfered. Also, as of yesterday morning the crane had …

I am very impressed with this. It looks like the residential buildings will be 6-7 floors, with retail masking the parking on ground level. It looks like a 8-9 floor hotel, and a very large winter garden which be pretty neat, I also really like the …

Karp has already received deposits for the purchase of most of the units, I am on his mailing list. He even sent preliminary floor plans and a site plan, but no renderings. I cant find the email right now, but I'm sure I didn't delete it.

I think the content of the homepage has been good so far, although it could be updated with the same type of news, just more often. Also, if someone posts a photo tour or set of construction updates that would be a good thing to post also. As an add…

The building that the North Precinct is in is (or was) actually part of the larger 3 floor Motorwheel Building. It was almost completely reconstructed in 1999, I think. their website says that there is 40,000 sq ft of space leased to Lansing Police …
