Downtown Lansing 1968 former senior citizens public housing during refurbishment, during fog.

Here is the tower "Oliver Towers," a singular towers, erected in 1968 and vacant since a fire in 2000, with its 2 leafless ginkgoes [sic]. If that is a "towers" then ginkgos has an e, I say.

 

Nobody thought the vacant and ruined building would ever get bought, nor that its mold and asbestos would get removed, nor that it would get rehabbed and converted to market-rate apartments — yet here we were supposedly seeing that occur? During an evening fog event in December 2018?

In downtown Lansing, Michigan, on December 14th, 2018, on the east side of North Seymour Avenue, north of West Ionia Street.
