Isn’t the proposed new building site also in a flood zone?

Yep, I don’t recall the name of the river.

The site is on the Grand River, but not a flood zone. In insurance terms, it would be categorized as "100 years plus." There are only a couple of spots in Lansing proper in which the Grand can flood. The Red Cedar is far more problematic.

Having said that, I am absolutely horrified by this Police Palace. Completely unnecessary. And to park a building like this riverside, where the city should be looking at projects which would be an economic draw...just horrified.
