If the crane at the Tower on Grand’s build site seems high up, get ready — it’ll be 200 feet higher before Lansing’s tallest skyscraper is done, according to Gentilozzi Real Estate Vice President John Gentilozzi.

“You’re gonna see a remarkable change in the skyline over the next year within 2026,” he said.

The 28-story, 300,000-square-foot skyscraper is the tallest of five buildings the Gentilozzis are building as part of their New Vision Lansing project. The $160 million tower will bring 287 residences, plus several amenities, to downtown Lansing.

All work scopes will be awarded in 2026, with 2.5 acres of glass curtain wall and a parking structure begun by the year’s end.

The four other buildings are in various stages of development.

  • 100 South Washington Square, a 10-story office-to-residential conversion, will be done by Fall of 2026 and include 60 studio, one- and two-bedroom apartments.
  • The Capitol Tower at 201 North Walnut St. will be complete in early 2027, with the concrete structure being erected in 2026. The project will feature 120 studio, one- and two-bedroom apartments, as well as office space.
  • The Ingham Building at 116 West Ottawa St. will be completely renovated into 25 apartments by Fall.
  • A project in Old Town is still in the preliminary stages, with more plans to come in May.

The $315 million New Vision project has received a $40 million state grant and another $160 million in tax incentives. At a groundbreaking ceremony in April for the Tower on Grand, Mayor Andy Schor called the project a “public-private partnership.”
