LANSING, Mich — Lansing's Old Town is among nine cities receiving funding as part of Michigan's "Make It Michigan" strategy, according to the Office of Governor Gretchen Whitmer.
The program provides grants of up to $15,000 to Michigan Main Street Communities to fund enhancements designed to attract more visitors.
Old Town will use the funds to string lights over the sidewalk of the 1200 block of Turner Street, creating a more appealing destination for festivals and increasing foot traffic in the area.
