SOUTH
SIDE
Thousands travel along this thoroughfare daily, as South MLK is made up of the many faces and places that make up the Lansing community. The South MLK Corridor is named after Dr. Martin Luther King, and has rich history, which includes Dr. King visits to Lansing’s South Side in the 50’s. Local organizations, initiatives, and residents are working to revitalize and sustain South MLK, so be sure to stay tuned for cool things coming! Learn more and find ways to get involved below.
