Re: U.S. Bank Stadium Construction Updates

Re: DTE: Wells Fargo, Radisson Red, Edition Apts & Millwright Building

Noticed they were installing bike racks today along 4th street side of the park. I recall someone questioning a few pages back whether there would be any.

Re: City of Minneapolis Offices Consolidation

The new structure would allow the agency to move its nearly 1,500 employees into three city-owned properties. The other two are City Hall and the First Precinct building. The city would sell the other three downtown buildings it owns — Fire Station No. 1, the Public Service Center and the City of L...

That used to be a UPS office/warehouse. Used to deliver pizza there when I worked at Savoys :)

Re: Downtown Parking

Completely agree. If i was single and worked downtown, i would be more likely to use the bus. But if I had a wife and kids at home, I would not want to waste that extra time on a bus when I could be with my family.
Single people also hate wasting time.

Re: The Commons - Downtown East Park

...it provides no benefit to anybody (other than the few people heading deeper downtown from the stadium after a game)... It would benefit anyone heading to the SW suburbs on the SWLRT when that gets built. Also it would benefit people utilizing the commons park for game related events. Who is gonn...

Re: U.S. Bank Stadium Construction Updates

Just a guess, but I would think it would be similar to those on Xcel Energy Center... does anyone know if those run 24/7?

Re: Chinese food downtown

I like "So Good Asian" in US Bank Plaza better than Skyway Wok, even though I think it's a bit more expensive.

Re: Downtown East - Wells Fargo / Radisson Red / Edition Apt

I'm surprised about how big the gap is between the Red and the Wells Fargo tower.
Agreed. That large concrete wall is very conspicuous and an eyesore. Here's hoping something's done to fix that.
