  • Drove past the Story dealership and it looks like a lot of the memorabilia/furniture has been cleared out of the building. Maybe starting demolition soon? I know their original plans were to groundbreak in the fall but the LSJ article was saying tha…
  • I spoke with with the Parks Department during their "City Hall on the Road" event and essentially they told me that they haven't gotten the funds yet from the millage but once they do they will be rebuilding the staircase to Michigan Avenue on the S…
  • Looking further down the road. Anybody see this? Fully electric buses that only take 5 minutes to charge and can drive for 250 miles on a single charge.
  • Just a quick thought, we should probably be updating the Oliver Towers page in the forum with this information rather than the "General Lansing Development" page. Specific project updates might get lost pretty easily in this thread.
  • They did attempt a weekly farmers market out on the plaza area a month or so ago. However it was quickly canned because they didn't have the vendors (they had two vendors and both left early) or the shoppers to support it. They should loop the river…
  • Yeah, everything I'm seeing is $276 million. Either it was a mistake or they know something we don't.
  • It's been a while since we've heard anything on this project so I'm not 100% sure on the status but I just went by the old YMCA building just a bit ago. The building looks pretty gutted as of now. Wonder if they're close to demolition.
  • Lansing Business News posted a nice feature on the surge of development that has been happening in Lansing. Thought it would be good to post their summary as a quick glance at all the projects going on. Under Construction Jackson National: $1…
  • MichMatters, there's definitely plenty on Michigan Avenue that needs to be fixed. I was just talking the immediate surroundings like the Frandor Shopping Mall. I think this is just the catalyst that this area needs. With the Red Cedar Renaissance ho…
  • Hopefully this will encourage the areas around (Frandor Shopping Mall) to ramp up the curb appeal of their place.
  • I always thought that the plans were for two separate buildings along Cedar. Of course the Outfield apartments are already breaking the mold a bit.
  • Big new development for the Impression 5 Science Center. They will be building a $600,000 two story water exhibit meant to teach children about water transportation and the effects of it. Fox 47 - Impression 5 Science Center
  • Looks like the concrete pad by the Marketplace Apartments was a base for a statue. Kind of a weird angle from behind but it is a metal sculpture of a man holding a toolbox.
  • I'm so excited for this project! I'm really hoping that it makes it's November groundbreaking.
  • Myself as well. I love the rivertrail. I was just noticing that the landscaping around the City Market and a few of the flower beds are looking like they've been forgotten about. Not necessarily groundbreaking stuff that absolutely needs to be fixed…
  • In response to your earlier statement gbinlansing, I would love for more landscaping in the area but I wish Lansing would also maintain some of the landscaping it already has. The rivertrail by the City Market and along Accident Fund is an absolute …
  • The Michigan Avenue mural project launched a crowdfunding campaign. A bit more to it than I thought. The project is calling for revised green space under the bridge and multi-colored lights in addition to four murals. Here's some images from the …
  • Just some things I noticed on my walk tonight. The Lansing Brewery murals are looking great. It looks like they're building a concrete slab on the corner of Kalamazoo and Cedar in the Marketplace Apartments lot. Looks like it could be a p…
  • I'm not the biggest fan of it but it works for a couple of reasons. It's painted red with sections in black for what I assume to match the Lugnuts colors. Also I feel that the bright new paint job does quite a bit to make it stand out in that block …
  • I'm sure it's been told to death already but does anyone have a date for the end of the exclusivity agreement with Radisson? I know it's soon but I feel like I've heard a few different years thrown out when exactly it expires.
