I have attended so many public hearings over development proposals in Hopkins and SLP over 20+ years and I kept hearing that the people who finance insist their models indicate single building multi use was not viewed favorably… that “horizontal ...

I agree the MIA overfilled their block. Having a satellite location in this high visibility site for other collections would be really nice!

Re: 2025-2026 Minnesota Legislature
Great point about the own-goal of allowing the non-resident to run in a district he did not reside in. Even after that already blew up against the GOP not long ago! Stupid and is a blemish against the head of the DFL to run the national Democratic Party.

Re: 2025-2026 Minnesota Legislature
The GOP has opted to demonstrate that they were never interested in bipartisanship last session in the name of pure bipartisanship for the state’s voters.
The DFL was right to distrust house GOP back then nor going forward.
Can senate GOP rein them in? Or are they cheering it on?

Re: 2025-2026 Minnesota Legislature
I read an analysis that if the legislature does not convene no budget is generated for the government this next year, and state operations are not automated so it shuts down when no budget is proposed.

Re: Green Line Extension - Southwest LRT
If future development of the area between the platform and the hospital was completely re-oriented around as-the-crow-flies pedestrian pathways, the walking distance could be as low as 2000'.

Re: Green Line Extension - Southwest LRT
And as Anondson mentioned there’s the hospital. From what I’ve seen it looks like they have a shuttle service between some outlying parking lots and the hospital, so I would hope they’d extend that shuttle the short distance to the station.

Re: Public Transit News / Current Events (MN only)
Yeah, disappointed at that framing, though there is a seed of a point. And that is that there are layers and layers of different governments that could coordinate better but what they do is just coming across as chaos.
