- Description:
- This is a collection of approximately 17,000 photographs of residential properties in the city of Lansing, taken by the City Assessor in the 1960s and 1970s. Most are black and white curb-side snapshots of the front facade of homes. Each photograph is identified by the older parcel number system that was in use by the City into the early 2000s. Some also have notes on them with the street address or other information; this is included in the individual image links where available. An explanation of the structure of older parcel numbers is as follows: 33 means a property is in Ingham County. If it starts with 23, the property is in Eaton County. 3301 means it is in the Lansing Township part of the City. 3305 would mean it is in the Delhi Township part of the City. The next number is the section number of the township. Downtown Lansing is in Section 16. The next three digit number is the assessor block number. If it starts with 1, it is in the northwest part of the section; 2 is northeast; 3 is southwest, 4 is southeast. The final number is the three digit parcel number. The new assessor parcel numbers are very similar to the old, except there is now a 01 after the 33 or 23 to indicate it is in the City of Lansing. The last six numbers can change due to the addition of subdivisions, lot splits, or lot joins. An index (divided into sections of 50 pages each) of street addresses that you can search and then locate the relevant older parcel number is available in this record's "Links" field above. Each Item (Child) Record in this collection represents a portion of the photographs based on the first six digits of the original parcel number.
