July 2007 - Urban Renewal
As many of you know, we recently relocated our offices back to Downtown Lansing. We’re in the 100 block of North Washington Square, and we couldn’t be more pleased. We’re in the middle of many buildings being renovated. By looking out our windows during the noon hour, we can see that the busy cityscape is abuzz with people rushing to get lunch, running errands, hurrying back and forth between offices with communications, and sometimes just enjoying a leisurely stroll before returning to the office. It’s a vibrant, vital scene that’s changing daily as visionary developers transform the cityscape.

And that’s just Downtown Lansing. There are exciting projects taking place all through the Greater Lansing area, and some are highlighted in this month’s issue. I certainly remember the excitement when Oldsmobile Park was built, specifically to house our own Lansing Lugnuts team. Now, across the street the Stadium District by the Gillespie Group is a welcome addition that will bring more people, more commerce, and more energy to Downtown Lansing.
Media attention often focuses on Michigan’s difficulties; for example, our longtime automotive industry that many define as dying with no hope of recovery, along with a state budget that is in dire need of restructuring. Wait a minute, there! Many of our economic sectors are doing very well, and you need only to look around the mid-Michigan area to see that. Holes being dug, cranes in the sky, structural steel going up, excitement in the eyes of mid-Michigan citizens—it’s a time for feeling very upbeat, and as you look through this issue of the magazine, you’ll find many of the people responsible for that positive atmosphere. We owe them our gratitude and our support.
Thanks for being with us for this issue of The Greater Lansing Business Monthly, for supporting our magazine for 20 years, and for working with us to keep the Greater Lansing region the wonderful living and working community that it is. Have a prosperous month.
