Re: Northeast and Southeast Minneapolis - General Topics
Between this, the Youngblood project, the Northrup King Artist Housing, and the 1717 Central project, it's pretty clear that developers are building exactly 1:1 car parking to unit ratios in upper Northeast.
All of these projects hit that mark, which gives Ward 1 the second highest car parking to unit ratio in the city this year (just barely behind Ward 13). With the F Line hopefully coming down the pike in 2026/2027, imo these ratios are disappointingly high.

Northeast and Southeast Minneapolis - General Topics
A lot of northeast is still very car dependent - I’ve been considering moving there so I was looking for neighborhoods with a lot of amenities and was shocked that the only pharmacies I could find in all of northeast were the Walgreens near Central and Lowry and then both cub and target pharmacies in the Quarry shopping center. Grocery stores are a bit better but options are still very limited compared to much of south minneapolis. In general it feels like the Quarry sucks up a lot of demand that might otherwise go to more neighborhood-scale stores. Most of northeast feels more “walkable if you want to get food or drinks” rather than “walkable for your daily needs”Between this, the Youngblood project, the Northrup King Artist Housing, and the 1717 Central project, it's pretty clear that developers are building exactly 1:1 car parking to unit ratios in upper Northeast.

Yeah. I'd very much like a neighborhood hardware store up here, and I think that if one already existed at, say, Lowry and Marshall it would do okay, but it's hard to make the business case for opening one in the 7ish miles between the Quarry HD and the Fridley HD.

Re: Northeast and Southeast Minneapolis - General Topics
This passed last night, with no one seconding Rainville's (legally indefensible) motion to deny rezoning. So, the other PCs have paid attention to the city attorney's office, even if he's too dumb to. Hope this and 635 manage to get started this coming spring.New before the Planning Committee CoW this week is a proposal for a six story, 65 unit, 20 car parking space project at 613 Van Buren. Here's the packet.

On the planning commission agenda: 89 units with 32 parking spots at 921 and 927 Marshall St. NE:

This part of northeast continues to density rapidly, with relatively low amounts of parking per unit

I work in this neighborhood, it's pretty awesome to see Marshall become a wall of buildings, like a mini Central Park West.

Re: Northeast and Southeast Minneapolis - General Topics
I got a kick out of this line.
Not sure what's next--even if this appeal is rejected the rezoning probably still needs a council vote.-

Neighbor's appeal denied, rezoning approved. Committee vote is 4-0. Goodman and Rainville absent. This goes forward to the next meeting of the full City Council.
Re: Northeast and Southeast Minneapolis - General Topics
There's an orange CPC flyer on the building, this will be on the Feb. 6th agenda.Looks like an apartment building proposal for 1516 Marshall St NE (currently a dumpster service, across the street from Fletchers) was proposed at the Sheridan Neighborhood Org meeting last week, according to their minutes.
- 184 units with 184 parking spots
- Some kind of commerical space fronting Marshall
- 65' tall (five stories? 1000 Main is five stories and 61', though it doesn't have a commercial space on the ground floor)
- public sidewalk connection from Marshall to the river trail

Re: Northeast and Southeast Minneapolis - General Topics
We posted about the preliminary plans for this project last October. Excited to see that there will be an update provided soon! Here's a link to our post if you'd like more details. https://thedevelopmenttracker.com/mpls/ ... ighborhood
Re: Northeast and Southeast Minneapolis - General Topics
Just got a notice that the Wells Fargo on E Hennepin is closing in August. Anything cooking at that site? Seems like a great location to do something similar to Rafter.

Re: Northeast and Southeast Minneapolis - General Topics
That means that the lot across the street is also going to be for sale potentially. This is huge. Now if only interest rates weren't wonky lately...

Re: Northeast and Southeast Minneapolis - General Topics
Hopefully it won’t sit vacant while a speculator waits for the market/interest rate environment to improve

I wonder if WF will build a new branch there? But I guess they would have broken ground alreadyThat means that the lot across the street is also going to be for sale potentially. This is huge. Now if only interest rates weren't wonky lately...

Re: Northeast and Southeast Minneapolis - General Topics
With the US Bank branch nearby, wasn't there something wacky where they had to open the new branch before closing the old one (to make way for Rafter), something to do with federal banking rules?
If Wells Fargo is announcing the closure of this branch and we haven't heard anything about a development proposal for the site, my assumption is that this branch was just slated for closure not related to an impending development. And I wouldn't expect to see a new branch open in the area either. They are consolidating operations to fewer branches. WF also recently closed the Nokomis East branch without replacement.

Re: Northeast and Southeast Minneapolis - General Topics
Yeah. I'm guessing they weren't able to get financing secured so they're trying to sell to someone who can.
Which worked with HenCen, so it's not unheard of.
