It's been two and a half years, but the redevelopment of the Downtown
Lansing landmark power station is taking shape.
According to
excerpts from the article:
All nine floors of the
190,000-square-foot power plant are in place. Workers are routing
computer cables, heating and cooling vents and assorted spaghetti into
the floors. A glassy new 105,000-square-foot addition is almost finished
and a parking deck to the north is going up fast.
Most work on
the Lansing-based insurance giant’s new corporate campus is expected to
end this Thanksgiving, followed by a month or two of inspections and
last-minute fixes.
Accident Fund employees can start
hauling in the computers, coffee urns and kid photos in early 2011. The
parking deck is scheduled for June 2011 completion.
The project
is on budget at $132 million, according to the
Christman Co., the general
contractor. The parking deck is expected to cost another $31 million.
The
theme here is adaptive reuse, on the grandest scale ever seen in
Lansing.
