I agree with you 100% on East Village. It is a suburban styled development, but it's in the middle of the city. People that want to live in the city want to live in an urban environment, not a suburban one. I would have loved to see East Village be…

There are a few articles on the project in this weeks City Pulse: Now they're cooking with gas Boilers and business Is that the train, ma?

The one renewable source of power that may work here is geothermal and that could easily be the main source of power for the area. While not renewable, nuclear is a great power source, I'd like to see it utilized more often. On another note for BWL …

That entire stretch of Lake Lansing is a nightmare to drive down at some times. I really wish they'd do something to alleviate the traffic problems in the area.

The problem with renewable energy for BWL is that in this area isn't well suited for any type of renewable energy source, at least not for mass-production.

I like graffiti, and I know some cities have found places that are agreeable to almost everyone to allow it. But I can't really think of any good spots for that sorta thing in Lansing off the top of my head. I do really like the idea though. They…

Yeah, I was trying to tell what that was myself. It does look sorta like ivy or something in the renderings, I wonder what it will look like when finished.

I don't know much about natural gas vs coal, other than that it's supposed to be quite a bit cleaner. I too would like know whether this will affect the air quality in the area, especially at ground level. Ideally, I don't think you should be able t…

I'm not sure if these have been posted before or not, but I noticed them on the MSU construction page: Bailey Hall renovation Bailey Hall Cyclotron Offices Phase 2 Cyclotron Offices Also, I had't see any renderings of the Plant Scienc…

It's rumored that the production of the Corvette is what they plan on moving to Lansing. I hope that proves to be true.

I started a new thread for the BWL project. In other news the they are going to be inviting graffiti artists to tag the Deluxe Inn July 30th through August 1st and at sometime after that the fire department is going to use the building for traini…

I definitely liked their first proposal for the riverfront more, the one that looked more like a boardwalk. But the end product is still decent.

I'm wondering where they are going to dock it near City Market. I do like the idea though.
-
There was a sign just off the Rivertrail with some new renderings of the Market Place development. The design is sorta bland, but it looks decent, and at 5 floors, it's a bit taller than originally proposed.

Apparently this project is still moving forward: Proposed $38 Million Triangle Project Hopes To Spark Walkable Development

The OPRA for MSUFCU is in this weeks council agenda and it says that renovations are estimated at $2.9 million, and they expect to complete the project by January 31st, 2011. That's a lot sooner than I was expecting, with that kind of time frame I'd…

Wow, I always thought that Mill Supplies sign was just a remnant of a long-gone business. I guess that will open up another slot for restaurant or club in that stretch, now I wish that they would open up the ground floor of that green building by th…

It looks like MSUFCU will be moving into the building that Dimitri's is leaving: MSUFCU Lansing branch to open in '11 I would have rather seen this become retail/restaurant space given the location, but it is nice to see MSUFCU opening a location…

What are the chances at getting a masonry facade? I'm glad to see a new market and I'm glad to hear it's successful, but the outward appearance is still disappointing.
