Weird huh? It was a stairwell, they had it up to about ten feet. I would assume they discovered some sort of defect, so they had tear it back down.

Yeah, I have really got to force myself to go out and take some pictures, between the bad weather and just not having any free time I've gotten behind. So many projects have progressed since anyone here has done a photo update...

This is going to look SO nice, I can't wait to see the finished product. ANd Maybe more importantly North Washington will get a real chance at some redevelopment, it ought to be interesting.

Since the scope of this is pretty well set now, I wonder where they will go with architecture and the size of the museum and library individually. I hope that Impression 5 will become a state of the art science museum at least on the level of the on…

Yeah it was about the Lansing Chamber of Commerce, after 7 days the only way to view LSJ articles is to either pay or view googles cache of the article. Also, they have started building the stairwell/elevator shaft today.

Class A rates are always lower than the overall rates, but in Lansing's downtown it has still stayed above 10%. As for any new buildings, the possible Capitol View expansion, the Association project and whatever else may be in the works

Just an update from the new CBRE market report, the downtown class A office vacancy is just 8%, so it continues to look better for the possibility of new office space downtown.

I wonder if he means it will occupy the whole block or just the Oliver Towers site? I assume he means just the Oliver Towers Site, and they would leave the Parking lot as is until there becomes a greater need to develop it, maybe into that new city …

As much as I'm dissapointed this won't be downtown, I'm happy to finally see a large building go up in that park. It needs a big anchor tenant to help draw other companies. Even on an 11 acre parcel, I would expect the 100,000 sq feet to be on at le…

This idea is definately out there and I don't see it gaining much support, the idea of mixing housing for the homeless with market rate is crazy and regardless this is a horrible location for a homeless shelter/housing. Plus there are already severa…

Many downtown museums (especially science ones) are well over 2 floors, given those are typically in larger cities. However I feel that the city will either build this thig right or not at all. I want to see the library be at least 6 floors and the …

I missed the State of the City and the council meeting. As for being optomistic about not having surface parking, I really don't think it's that far out there. In Lansing property value has not been the driving force for things going taller, it h…

Oh well, I really think the project is more viable than Matt let on. He estimated the cost at $3-4 million, it would have had over half the units of stadium district and cost less than third of it. In fact I would expect any new project here to be d…

I HIghly doubt you would see any surface parking, and probably not a parking garage onsite. LCC is planning on a second ramp on the Old Central site and the North Capitol ramp is not to far off from needing to be rebuilt, likely larger than before.

As for those two apartment buildings on Main, I like the project, but do not think it is anywhere near deserving of an NEZ. That is unless he plans some MAJOR improvements. Lmich has a good idea to tear down the Deluxe and the adjacent apartment bui…

I seen it today, it doesen't look that bad, once they put a top and bottom decoration it will probably look much nicer. I think what will mainly make or break it will be the awnings and the windows.
-
The LSJ artcle said that limestone was to be used on the bottom two floors and all new glass. If the Boji's cheap out their project will fail, plain and simple. Others have made attempts at cheap remodels of the Hollister building and they failed, I…

I noticed they hd scaffolding and plastic up around it the other day. I wonder why they bothered doing a patch if their going to rennovate in spring...
-
Like I said about other projects, I wish they would just start out with a conservative date, if it comes early, GREAT! Everyone can be pleasantly suprised, if it takes until the announced date or a little after, oh well, at least it doesn't go from …

construction is coming along nicely and I'd have to say it looks a lot bigger than what I expected it too look in person. Here's a screenshot from the webcam:
