Some of Lansing's recent and current projects:
-
New Municipal Facility
- New City Park
- New Community Library
Additionally, the city of Lansing was selected in 2009 by Money Magazine as one of the top 100 best places to live in the U.S. Once you visit our city and meet its residents and business owners, we think you will agree.
There are several housing projects underway with a vast array of pricing and styling. Complimenting these enhancements is the excellent school system serving this community. Lansing voters recently approved building a new multi-million dollar state-of-the-art high school, scheduled to open in 2015-16.
