IIRC, I believe the Emerson to Fremont block is too short for a 3-car station.Is there a technical reason why they chose James over Emerson/Fremont? Is the stop spacing too close? I can't imagine that the headways would be short enough for that to be a problem.

Re: Freight Rail News and Happenings
The article does state that language would be added strictly prohibiting them from using those tracks for storage if the new tracks are built.If the new storage track is built, what makes them think Progressive Rail won’t continue to store railcars on the tracks through those neighborhoods?

Re: Lowa46 - 46th & Hiawatha Cub Foods Mixed Use
It's where Eric The Red was supposed to build and move to, but he backed out and opted for 66th in Richfield. It would be nice to see a restaurant or something go there.I wonder when they're going to develop that lil green triangle to the west of Lowa

I have a feeling that these two places are just new concepts from the same owners as Hammer and Fremont. I have no solid evidence to substantiate this other than that they're side-by-side and they're both going to be open to 2am. Sort of, Suh still holds the lease, but recently decided to retire: L...

Re: Blue Line Extension - Bottineau LRT
Looks like they've decided to spit the alignment at Broadway and 21st. I really, really wish they hadn't decided this -- I think splitting it is the kind of decision that makes transit needlessly illegible just so we can sorta avoid a minor political inconvenience. In time, we'll definitely be wish...

Not mentioned but I assume this includes the cafe space? I've thought for a while it would make sense for them to put another Ceres there.

Re: Public Transit News / Current Events (MN only)
As far as the Blue Line outsourcing, my reaction is to shrug. It's still hard-working Americans doing the work, it's not like we're outsourcing it to Mexico or India. I think the issue is outsourcing work to a Right To Work state and to non-union people. It might not be Mexico or India, but certain...

Looks like the Aldersgate church site received approval for apartments to be constructed over loud and angry disapproval of neighbors concerned over … you know.
