I really have no idea what to expect at that site. I could see a couple small apartment buildings with or without ground floor commercial facing MLK and small apartments or townhouses facing the side streets. As always, I'll just be hoping for quali…

Oh yeah, they broke ground before then even. All the first floor columns to the hotels are done and they're working on three elevator cores/stairwells, one of which is probably up to the 4th or 5th floor. Speaking of construction, I was by the bu…

Gillespie just broke ground on a 60k sq ft medical office building next to the new Mclaren Hospital. I don't see any news articles but he posted it to his Facebook page. https://www.facebook.com/GillespieGroup

A couple things from MSU today: They announced planning has officially begun for a new IM West replacement that will be built south of Shaw between Birch and Harrison. They have no cost estimates as of now and they expect planning to take about a ye…

Yeah, when they built the Delta Plant they always said they had enough land to build another assembly plant, then there was the talk from Hollister a few years ago about another plant finally going out there and it finally brings us here. Now the ba…

City Pulse has an article with a bit more info on the proposal. The building would be 2.5 million square feet on 590 acres adjacent to the Delta Township plant, they're proposing 1700 permanent jobs and 1000 construction jobs. https://www.lansing…

I was looking at the 224 S Washington (former club X-cel) OPRA and they are planning a $400k renovation to make it into an entertainment space able to host up to 600 people. The most recent development and planning agenda has a little more on it but…

@Lymon89 Yeah, when I was looking into the concept it looked like it was a local guy behind it and he's been at for awhile. It looks like he now has the backing of a well known multi-millionaire baseball player so at least this one iteration of it l…

@Lymon89 Was that the student greenhouse project or the baseball thing?

Something called Strikeout Baseball is coming to Ferris Park courtesy of a local baseball player, John Smoltz. https://www.fox47news.com/neighborhoods/downtown-old-town-reo-town/john-smoltz-strikeout-baseball-stadium-coming-to-ferris-park-in-lans…

No arguments here, that building will get no love from me. I do hope the site is reserved for something more than a 4-5 floor wood frame apartment building though. I don't hate the concept for an entertainment venue along the lines of this or the De…

I just wanted to share a pretty good YouTube channel I found a few months ago that keeps up on all the developments in Detroit for anyone interested. The Gordie Howe Bridge's towers are probably over 2/3 done, the new high rise (2nd tallest in Detro…

@MichMatters I didn't remember all that, it makes more sense now. I tend to agree on the timeline for the shuffleboard place, unless they do something really unique there I don't see how they survive. I could possibly see it working if they had dive…

Yeah, the whole situation with kicking out the successful restaurant that had been there for years for this somewhat odd proposal is a bit of a head scratcher. I'd guess there's something going on behind the scenes, maybe or maybe not nefarious, tha…

I'm not really sure about this plan with the City Market building but I am glad they didn't sell it off yet. In my mind, if the Lansing Center stays where it is then the City Market site would be best suited to a hotel, hopefully a proper high-rise.…

@MichMatters I made it by there today and I'm surprised at what it looks like underneath there as well, I'll never understand why someone paid thousands of dollars to put ugly, relatively high-maintenance wood paneling over attractive and low mainte…

I don't know what to expect from them on the Washington side of the property. I still have a feeling it's one of the sites in play for the new performing arts center, along with the Atrium Building and probably a couple other options. I'm just glad …

I stopped by and grabbed a quick picture of the Lake Trust site with my phone. Work is well under way on the first floor columns.

I was also wondering if that was going to be parking, I'm not sure how parallel parking on that part of St Joe will work out the way people drive there though.

@Jared I went ahead and resized all the pictures, sorry I thought it would automatically resize on uploading. @gbdinlansing I believe that house shaped building is supposed to be a restaurant, I don't think they've said anything about exactly wha…
