A Boost Mobile store has arrived in south Lansing!

With a coat of bright orange paint and a prominent logo attached to its awning, Irvine, Calif.-based Boost Worldwide, Inc., has successfully brought this 1943 building into the late 2010s.

 

Per G. Streetview, the building's conversion from a medical marijuana dispensary to a Boost Mobile store occurred sometime between August 2017 and October 2018. Prior to that, it had changed from the "That's Hot Boutique" to a medical marijuana dispensary sometime between September 2008 and July 2011. These are happy memories.
