Can we just talk about how I am obsessed with the "Welcome to Lansing" entrance off to the side. It's the polar opposite of what entering Lansing feels like now and the difference shows, quite starkly, how badly a revamp is needed. That whole area…

This is actually really great. Look at the cities it's with - Austin, Chicago, even NYC. A few more articles like this and the secret might just get out. Perhaps we're almost approaching tipping point of Lansing finally coming into its own?

FIVE GUYS FTW! It's one of my favorite parts of living in NYC and I'm so glad I can get it when I come home. Also this is a great sign - this makes Lansing only the second market in Michigan with 5 Guys. Grand Rapids and Ann Arbor don't have any,…

That's the issue here - while the developer flails around dealing with all the other messes he's created, a whole block sits rotting away. And it's not as if this is some out-of-the-way property that no one sees. This is really the centerpiece of …

Jared I completely agree about JetAmerica - my parents were elated when it was announced, as I live in NYC now. It would have been incredible to just hop a flight from Lansing to Newark, and especially for so cheap. MichMatters, I agree with you…

I don't see it as a problem because it takes away the traffic that would be on flights from Lansing to Detroit - I'd much rather take the bus than fly there as well. The issue is that the Flyer passengers are going to Detroit to use the airport. D…

That is a really great idea - it'd be a nice sized building and really add a 'big city feel' to the area. It would also increase the visibility of the Flyer and make it a more likely choice. I have somewhat mixed feelings about the Flyer myself - …

I don't hate the front view, and am especially fond of the green. But that tiny flash of color and levity in the design ends up just underscoring how big of an epic fail the rest really is. Like others, I'm sure this will function well and bring m…

While I'd love to see this focus and money go to the downtown core, I am cautiously optimistic about this. I always wished that they put in a floor or two of condos and apartments over the retail in Eastwood. If anyone here is familiar with Crocke…

How did it cost this much money?!

thecommish: Cabs from Newark Airport to Manhattan run around $50 (they will give you a flat rate when you tell them your destination at the taxi rank), while the AirTran light rail runs about $10 each way I think. However, the AirTran only gets …

I was a little surprised to see this article on MSNBC.com about JetAmerica - and especially surprised that it focused so much on Lansing! Unfortunately the focus was on the negative, but it's always nice to see the area talked about on a national s…

Just a heads up, my parents who had booked a flight through the new Azul Air service between Lansing and Newark received a letter that Azul has cancelled all flights. Bad news for Lansing Int'l.....

Thanks micro! I'm really interested in what was said about the Knapps building - a block of shopping would be such an improvement down there... I doubt it would be feasible, but a small galleria type thing with a movie theater would be fantastic. …

agreed.

I think it's possible too to integrate the regional rail with bus service. We already have one of the best bus systems in the country - I don't think it'd be too difficult to build something between Lansing/East Lansing/Delta Township and have bus …

Just a couple more photos of the Coventry area... The first one is the fencing I was talking about, with the sculptures...

Binto: thanks! Is there an easy way to do that? I tried the normal photobucket html code but no dice :) PS in the last one, I just love how the tree fences are made into shapes - musicians playing instruments, artists painting, etc... just an in…
