East Lansing Insider: East Lansing’s Evergreen Development Problem

On this episode of East Lansing Insider, brought to you by ELi in partnership with Impact 89FM, ELi’s Publisher and Executive Director Alice Dreger chats with Managing Editor Emily Joan Elliott about the history of the Evergreen Properties, which the Downtown Development Authority (DDA) purchased in 2009. Over the years, the DDA had hoped to sell the properties to several developers, but so far nothing has panned out as planned. Dreger explains the long history up to the present, including a possible deal between the DDA and River Caddis and the construction of MSUFCU’s downtown office building.
