Re: Orange Line / 35W@94: Downtown to Crosstown Project
I used the 535 to connect to the 46 often when I worked downtown, but the connection times were always hit or miss. I huffed it more than once to my house from the 46th St Station rather than wait 30 mins for another bus. And the 535 routinely ran late out of downtown which didn't help. It was faste...

Re: Maintaining old houses
our 30s era home's windows were replaced roughly 12 years old and we don't have storms with them. I don't miss them, and it's fine without them.

Re: Minneapolis Vehicle Equipment Violations
IN my case, it's training another driver not to turn off the vehicle from auto setting.It's because people think DRLs are sufficient for night and/or they think their car turns on nighttime lights automatically.

Re: Carbucks
they built a Starbucks at 47th St and Cedar Ave in Minneapolis recently with a drive through. it has not had the same issues, although I was worried that it was going to. Minneapolis only allowed them one curb cut on Cedar (they wanted an entrance too) and I think that helps. It always seems busy, b...

It turns urban roads into mini-freeways. See Portland or Park Avenue north of Lake Street.

Re: Minneapolis Park and Recreation Board
the ped/bike crossing at the 50th/parkway/Portland Y split is particularly problematic and I like turning the parkway into a one way there with a more defined intersection.

Re: Bergan's Redevelopment - Cedar & Minnehaha Parkway
I used to find some value in the area nextdoor (I live in Northrop). These days I find the NIMBYs outshout the supporters of these things and I'd rather spend my energy elsewhere.NextDoor is absolutely on fire over this one. So much![]()

Re: A Line - Arterial Rapid Bus
the 46 runs a block from my house. I ride it when i can, but it has a terrible connection window with the 535/orange line, especially in the afternoon during rush hour. I've stood around at that station so many times because of a missed connection or a huge gap in between trips... I started taking t...

Re: Downtown Minneapolis General Topics & Development Map
a lot of downtown residents use uber and lyft on nights and weekends, even to go to places like target. I know because I pick a lot of them up. It's not the cheapest, obviously, but it's probably less than the cost of car ownership if they have cheaper modes available during the week.

Re: Fiber Internet and TV Services, Cord Cutting
There really aren't any better alternatives for me still. I was already on the 100 plan. I don't really need 300, but I'll take it.
I'm more annoyed about the $8.00/month rental on future equipment (if current breaks/is slow/etc). I hope there's a purchase option.

Re: Mall of America - Bloomington
they've installed some kind of sensors in the ceilings of the parking garages which will probably detect openings. I've parked in other facilities with these and they're quite nice and efficient.
