A century-old, 10-story building at the corner of Michigan and Washington avenues, at one time home to the Michigan Court of Appeals, that’s being renovated to house 60 new apartments is just one part of a massive project that will change downtown Lansing.
Construction is underway on a new Lansing City Hall along East Lenawee Street and South Grand Avenue, and Mayor Andy Schor says the project is built for the modern era.
The new building was constructed with $40 million in state-appropriated funds. Schor said the current city hall requires constant renovations and costs between $1.5 million and $2 million per year in extra maintenance.
LANSING, Mich. – Lansing Mayor Andy Schor and the Lansing Economic Development Corporation (Lansing EDC) today announced the relaunch of the Build Lansing initiative with a new online platform designed to connect developers, investors, and community partners with strategically prioritized, publicly owned redevelopment opportunities throughout the city.
