  • I think it's DSA Architects. It actually appears to be quite tall for a two floor building, maybe even slightly over 50 ft. I think it will come in at almost the height of the glass block portion of the TLC Building. I think that LCC plans on adding…
  • Are they in Google Earth or do they have to be downloaded from somewhere? Also, if anyone wants these buildings I can email them the file.
  • I think he is moving more on this now though, for instance there's a sign up on the building now. Ever since I first heard of this project (I think in '04, and the proposal by a previous developer in '02) I've wanted to see renderings. However I may…
  • Yeah, but seeing the Stadium District get underway would ease tention. I'm not going to get too hung up on this unless Friday comes and nothing is going on yet.
  • The developer of the former City Club site, Mark Kerrins, came in to speak to my property management class today. I asked him what he planned for the site, he said the only thing for sure is residential. He said that he has some architectual render…
  • I can't wait to see this project become a more solid proposal, with dates and official renderings released.
  • So how many do they still need to get?
  • I was just by the site at about 3:30 and there is no sign of fencing going up or anything on the site, there are still a few cars parking there.
  • That actually looks pretty good, I'd say, at least for what it is. I am still REALLY impressed with the new MSU parking ramp, it has to be one of the best designed ramps around. With that hall rennovation, was that an old building or an addition …
  • I noticed that also, I heard that one of the resturaunts wasn't goind to officially open until haloween, it must have been The Firm. Never the less, it gives a hint at what downtown could be like. I think there needs to be at least 3 more places tha…
  • I was driving home last night, and went through downtown, down Michigan from Penn and then down Washington. I couldn't beleive how many people were down there, there was very little parking available. All the nightspots I could see inside of were bu…
  • I don't know who either are, I've checked the few sources I have and came up with nothing. The Boji's seem to prefer to work with Christman on their projects so in ll likelyhood it will be them, especially given it's a historic restoration. I'm assu…
  • I haven't gotten them to respond to any of my emails. But honestly, i don't care if their rude, they do a good job and are investing a lot of money into the city.
  • "You all will be very, very pleased." I hate that answer, so vague, but so promising. It will have sitting on the edge of my seat for awhile. I want to at least hear a small project announced here and there, it almost seems as if the city is awai…
  • My dad just informed me that the rennovation has been going on for some time. The third floor will be done before too long, then the state employees from the 5th floor will move to the third and work will likely begin on the lofts. Lmich, can you…
  • New article from the City Pulse on the School for the Blind deal, nothing really new except for that the school got financing and the project will be moving forward. Academy closes School for Blind deal
  • I never attem[ted to contact them before he was in charge. But he is about the only one I ever get a response from. I've never gotten a response from the mayors office, I only got one response from emailing council and I've never a gotten a response…
  • Thats what I was thinking. there is nothing noteworthy even possible on that block besides something new being built. And there are really only two potential locations for something new, either those two one story buildings or that lot. Thats why I'…
  • The lot I was talking about is a small lot kitty-corner to the Knapps building, it actually has a few parking places in it. About the Temple Club, thats really too bad. I think the club had a lot more potential and since the owner has been trying…
  • After rereading the LSJ story about the Firm, I decided to look into Bob Green's (the PSD director) commments: "There are other projects in the works for the 200 South Washington block that will just add to the mix.", and "Green expects to make an a…
