The Lansing Civic Center was a convention center located in downtown Lansing, Michigan at 525 West Allegan Street, the southeast corner of West Allegan and South Pine Streets. It opened in 1955 and had a 6,500-capacity auditorium, which was host to events such as circuses and rock concerts, as well as the Michigan Constitutional Convention of 1961.[1] The center was renamed Lansing Civic Arena in 1987 as to not be confused with the new Lansing Center. The building was demolished in 1999.[2]
