Make time for these
Club Paradise opened on Washington Square in 1992, the night after Trammpps, Lansing's older gay club, closed, and it became the city's leading gay dance club. In 2002 it was sold and relaunched as Club X-Cel with a mostly straight crowd. The building later housed other nightlife businesses, including a hip-hop venue and a hookah lounge.
