Local Blues Bar
Published: April 30, 2009Neighborhood: Eastside

The next person I interviewed was a young lady named Lacey. She is a bartender at the Green Door Blues Bar & Grill, a popular music bar on Michigan Avenue in Eastside Lansing. I figured this would be good because local businesses and their employees are always important roles when a project like this is taking place in their city. Lacey has lived in Lansing her whole life. When I asked here what she thought of Michigan Avenue, she said that it was better than a lot of the other streets. She seemed to like the idea of the Michigan Avenue Corridor. However, her only complaint was that she wishes it were more downtown. I then asked her if this would become benefit for the area. She said, “Yes, I think it’s great. I feel that it will attract more people, especially college students.” My last question was if she saw a better future for Michigan Avenue regarding this project. She commented that it will help the current state of everything, and become a major boost for the businesses.
