A driveway is the assumption I'd make, but I don't know. It's also odd because the documents also mention that the buildings will be buffered from the neighborhood and that the office building will step down to two floors at the south end. Maybe thi…

Some items from the December 8th City Council packet: -Rezoning of Walter French to F-1 commercial for the purpose of converting "the building at 1900 S. Cedar Street into a mix of commercial, office and multiple family residential uses..." It g…

In looking for renderings of Sparrows new cancer building I found a couple renderings by c2ae labeled as "Hospital Cafeteria": I'm not sure if this is just a concept or something actually in the works but it would make for a nice addition…

I think some domino effect projects have already happened, the Accident Fund headquarters and Knapps are a huge one-two punch landed for downtown, eliminating the last two large empty and outdated buildings downtown. In REO Town the new power plant …

The problem is that it's not really the tall buildings that bring the people, it's all sorts of positive things that go into creating a market where tall buildings are feasible. Lansing doesn't seem to be at that point yet, but I think it's getting …

It seems odd to me that the Senate would accept sharing a building with a private tenant, I'd imagine they'd really like to have the whole building and probably plan on it sooner rather than later. What original plan did the House fail to move on?

At first glance I thought the rendering was looking north/northwest at Abbott and Grand RIver also, but looking closer I'm pretty sure it's looking west/southwest with Abbott across the foreground. It looks like a nice building and a good quality…

After looking at the site plan, and watching WILX's video, I'm pretty sure that second rendering is the headquarters building. Site plan from WLNS: I'm liking this project. The townhomes look great, the headquarters looks good and the site p…

MSUFCU is planning a three floor, 185k sq ft addition to their headquarters building: MSUFCU to expand East Lansing headquarters It's great to see them doing well, but it makes all the more disappointing they didn't build this 300,000+ sq ft of o…

Driving by there the other day I was pretty disappointed to see how permanent the parking lot looks. It doesn't give much hope for seeing any development in the near term.

That link says 2013 to 2014 in the body of text and 2014 to 2015 in the header, do you know if this is something that has already happened or is it ongoing?

I'm ready to see this project buried. I don't really know what the best course of action is, but this project has been an epic failure and continues to disappoint after all these years. I'm ready to see Citizen Bank Building razed and the other buil…

Yeah I'd agree. If they keep Oliver Towers, it would make for decent student housing. I just hope that they would do some major upgrades for the facade and construct a liner building a couple floors tall with first floor retail as you said. I for…

The Greater Lansing Convention and Visitors Bureau posted a link to a page with several new renderings of the apartment building and ballpark renovations: Stadium renovation and development

Yeah, I'd agree that the height and scale of the buildings is good. Now just to wait for the official announcement to see just how vague and far off this project is.

I've always really wanted to see that warehouse on Shiawassee turned into lofts, but it's still great to see it get some attention. I'm really interested to see what this Lake Trust redevelopment is. I can't really imagine any situation in which …

That's certainly good to hear. I was wondering how long it'd take to see work start on that, I'll have to try to get by there soon.

This is some more good news for Michigan Ave. I wonder what their plan is exactly though, it says that they will spend $1.6 million to redevelop the site and build a temporary terminal, then they will seek a development partner to build a hotel/offi…

I noticed a few days ago when I was by the Penfil Apartments that they had finished rebuilding the collapsed wall and had started putting in windows. I was a bit worried that they weren't going to follow through on the renovation or that they would …

I don't really like that the entrance will go on one of the less visible sides of the building but I guess there must be some logic to it. I checked the MSU construction projects page for the first time in awhile and found that several projects h…
