Very good. Sorry for jumping to conclusions.

Ok... I see it now. This was in the aerial photo at the time. Looks like it was mowed.

While I remember, I am deleting this.

Welcome to OpenStreetMap.
Actually, as we only map the truth on the ground, and the tracks to the south-west have been gone for decades, we should technically remove the abandoned railway. I have been meaning to do this. You could map the path that remains through Holly Park with highway=path .

Rather than a relation, generally each location would be mapped separately with the branch tag used to distinguish between each location having the same primary name.
branch=*

I am pretty sure that the water treatment plant does not have tree planted spelling out "MSU". Would you kindly remove this, and any other misrepresentations you may have added to the map?

Just rediscovered this problem created by a user using MAPS.ME and am now going to fix Eagle Monk. I am not sure how accurate their other edits might be, but the location is way off and a duplicate.

No problem. If Amazon Logistics is using OpenStreetMap for routing and would like to maintain construction status, that is great. I would love it if someone were to do this.

In the meantime, I have re-opened eastbound 496. And, I intentionally left westbound 496 open, because I am not sure that I will remember to fix it when it re-opens.

Eastbound 496 has been open, for a little while, and now westbound is closed.

I am thinking, that unless we plan to keep road closures up to date, it would be better to keep a roadways tagged as open.

Watch out for imagery offset problems, where the areal imagery between tiles/dates/sources is often slightly askew/shifted/different than reality. If you see most of the roads and houses are not lining up, it is likely the imagery tile that needs to be moved/aligned, not the objects. Each editor has its own way of doing this. One way to verify this is to change to different image source or turn on the display of public GPS traces and look at the trace to image alignment at a road intersection. For more information, consult the wiki... osm.wiki/Using_Imagery

You must have done your homework. Most new users (myself included) add houses as "building=house", when around here, they are more often "building=detatched".

Thank you for your OSM work in the Lansing area.

86262258

Very good. I error regularly. =)

85995963

Nice work.
Might consider using the less obvious, yet more detailed tag, building=detached .
building=house

86262258

Curious. Last I checked, the MSU Union mostly brick, concrete foundation and a slate roof. Did I miss something?

According to the Wiki, it looks like the current convention would be to tag the sailing club area with:
club=sport
sport=sailing

See sport=sailing

85052112

Yes. Thanks!

MacGolf09, if you need any assistance, take a look at the message I sent you through OpenStreetMap and the Lansing Wiki page.

Slipways are mapped as a single node at the water's edge, at the end of the "highway".
leisure=slipway

See also the Lansing area Wiki page (which I hope to soon move to the Michigan page) for local conventions.

Eagle Monk is some miles away. What is this Eagle Monk shop you added?
