Lagos tacos and iron door pub are closing this month. Lyndale between lake and 29th has had alot of closures the past year

It will open up options for the property but it points to taxes going up significantly which will filter to every resident of the city

Im not sure this works for housing but it would make a truly great event or museum space. Im not sure what museum would fill it

Assuming this stays on the current timeline im not worried about it. If it gets delayed I would be more worried. Musk and co are a blue ribbon committee that congress and Trump will use for PR and likely ignore when real legislation is made. They also will have the weakest house majority in a very ...

Downtown should be the "destination" and we could assign colors or something to make it clear as well

All of those will take some time to fill. There will be office to housing conversions of the old republic and part of the century link building plus a few smaller ones but we will see a drop in big projects. Hopefully rates drop some this year and that gets developers rolling again
