Lansing just hit a decade-long low in permitting housing. Demand is constant and market analysis suggests we need >1,000 units built/year. We should be permitting more, incl 2-4 unit buildings

In the 1960s (when MLK was still named Logan and not a 6-8 lane hwy through our city), the Mich Department of Highways was looking at different plans to route traffic through Lansing. Eventually Logan would be expanded (pic from LSJ, 19 Nov 1961) #lovelansing
Downtown Lansing has a lot of land reserved for parking but it's not all available to downtown residents or patrons. @Cedar500 shows us in this map how much land is reserved for cars: lansingography.com/2024/02/l…
