  • Kyle edited the article with this: Editor’s note: This story has been corrected to clarify that migration trends examined by CommercialCafe were between metropolitan statistical areas, as defined by the U.S. Census Bureau — which locally includes …
  • ...I'm not seeing much of a wonderful change, but I'm not a partisan either. *shrug*
  • You need an LSJ subscription to read it, but there's some disagreement within Delta Township and the developer of the new Delta Crossing about if and how the developer might get additional incentives from the township to complete Phase 2 (the reside…
  • I wonder which proposed use is getting replaced with this mini storage; the restaurant, hotel, office, or bank...or all of the above.
  • I hate Lansing Township as a jurisdiction. Everything about their existence, their borders, and the way that they operate as a government is an abomination. I know annexation isn't happening, so I wish that Delta residents and Lansing Township resid…
  • Disappointed to see a population decrease within the city limits in the last census. Breakdown by community via Bridge Michigan * Lansing 112,644 (-1,653) -1.4% * Lansing Township 8,143 (17) 0.2% * Dewitt 4,776 (269) 6% * Dewitt Township 4,776…
  • That Waverly Golf Course development is the worst. Honestly, it seems better off to leave it greenspace than to do what they're planning. Seriously, a car wash. I'm so annoyed with that project.
  • Great article today in the LSJ for subscribers only discussing the possibilities and options for downtown in light that many State of Michigan employees will remain remote workers. Ideas included redeveloping vacant office buildings into condos and …
  • Lansing and LSD were in expansion mode during that time. Fine Park is probably named for the developer Francis Fine, who developed Churchill Downs (across Waverly) the decade prior. He may have developed this neighborhood as well, assuming this beca…
  • > State workers will be coming back downtown (and to wherever else they work in-office) on July 12. I know the commercial businesses downtown will be happy. Some are coming back, not all of them. Many that do come back will be splitting re…
  • @gbdinlansing The terrain at Northrup is rolling, so not as prominent as Mt Hope. I bike that stretch of the trail quite a bit. Here's the topos for both Mt Hope and Northrup. The closer that lines are together, the steeper the terrain.
  • This is probably an unpopular opinion, but I'd rather the greenspace remain than see the planned development happen. It's so uninspiring.
  • I've never been to their EL location. I'm a southsider, so I'm stoked for this- especially if they have food service.
  • Ellison Brewery in REO Town is targeting Spring 2021 for their opening. https://www.lansingstatejournal.com/story/news/local/2020/10/20/ellison-brewer-spirits-reo-town-spring-2021/5935139002/ MERIDIAN TWP. – Ellison Brewery and Spirits' second …
  • That would have been an abomination. The image is "scheme C" or "scheme D" (it's hard to tell) and there's more pics of that and other proposed designs here; https://photos.metrotimes.com/michigan-state-capitol-redesign-never/?slide=8&scheme-c-e…
  • There are normally a small herd of deer along Pleasant Grove just north of Holmes. I'm in Churchill Downs and about halfway into our lockdown about 15-20 deer came running down Churchill Ave and into the neighborhood, it was surreal. This year I'…
  • I absolutely love this, not only for COVID but in general. I specifically choose places with outdoor seating from spring-fall, which means I have a short rotation list of places.
  • Yep, looks like repairs; https://www.facebook.com/photo?fbid=1623906091108940&set=a.288414137991482
  • The hope is probably to draw in the new residents to push out the vagrants.
  • "The Student Commission also said 'tall buildings remove the agricultural aesthetic around campus.'" That is an embarrassing statement.
