Re: Northside - News & General Topics
Really happy and excited to see the city and developers finally giving this area of Minneapolis some attention. Also glad to see them working closely with the neighborhood. So much history/character along Broadway. Such a shame it's been neglected so long.

Re: Hennepin Avenue Downtown Reconstruction
Hear trees are being planted along sections of Hennepin . Can anyone post updated pics? Downtown greening is a huge interest of mine.

Re: Downtown Minneapolis Retail News
Fascinating - the Hennepin half of the ground floor is fully leased, then. Wonder if there's any chance the ping-pong bar that was slated to go into the Embassy Suites space across 6th pre-pandemic could still happen? Can someone give more deats on the restaurant moving into the old Prime 6 spot. C...

Re: Downtown Minneapolis Restaurant News
Noa, a restaurant focused on "seasonal California cooking", will be opening in the Mission space in the IDS Center this summer . Great news! Downtown Mpls. isn't dead - people haven't given up on it. Have confidence it will come back, hopefully stronger. Also see a new vegan restaurant is...

Re: Downtown Minneapolis Restaurant News
Starbucks has cleared out of their Nic on Fifth space, so RIP to the leasing team for that building. That was my fav Starbucks downtown because it wasn't in the skyway. Unbelievable. What about the Starbucks in the skyway of the Westin? I would love to have a coffee shop back on Nicollet besides Ca...

Re: Downtown Minneapolis Restaurant News
As recessions go, this has been a highly unusual one, because most people haven't lacked for money, just ways to spend it. I've felt for a while that, when things finally open up for good, there might be a flood of spending as people make up for lost time. It won't be overnight, but hopefully by th...

Re: Ideas / Wish List for Mpls in 2021
It's a bit funny to hear so many items out of the 70's-90's Civic Booster Playbook. Gotta bring the suburbanites to downtown for an evening! Cheap parking! Parades! Festivals! Meanwhile, residential and office construction in downtown Minneapolis is at a multi-decade high. Everyone loves more event...

Re: Ideas / Wish List for Mpls in 2021
Make parking downtown more easy/affordable. Lower hourly rates at parking meters, and do paid street parking in the core after 6 PM, at least on the weekends! Work with parking ramps to come up with some type of affordable parking option for visitors. *I know the city is hurting for money, but I do...

New wish list - make parking downtown more easy/affordable. Lower hourly rates at parking meters, and do away with having to pay after 6 PM.

Re: Ideas / Wish List for Mpls in 2021
Im in the minority but if it can get right of way which I think if parking was removed on Nicollet is doable I want the line. I like the street car from downtown to uptown or even the greenway street car idea. Its not cost efficient I know. I am just not in favor of removing street parking along st...

Re: Ideas / Wish List for Mpls in 2021
The city needs to work on getting people back downtown. If COVID restrictions are lifted by fall, I would like to see the city work with the Daytons Project to bring back the annual holiday show, and Bachmanns Flower Show. Also move the holiday market back to Peavy Plaza, and bring back the Holidaz...

1)Small, but the "Caveman: at Theo Wirth has been really popular. It would be nice to see this develop into an entire village created by local artists. The village could rotate throughout the city's parks throughout the year. 2) See UHT to continue moving forward. 3) That the city comes to pea...

Re: Downtown Minneapolis Restaurant News
Little birdie told me Bar La Grassa, 112 and Birch Steak all closing. Such a shame. Unbelievable. I would have guessed perhaps 112 Eatery, but all three? It's really sad to hear so many well-regarded restaurants are closing. It's going to take along time for the city to rebound from all the closing...

Re: Downtown Minneapolis Retail News
Also - even though I shopped at the Target liquor store on Nicollet, I was never a fan of it opening, considering the number of homeless people and those who obviously had drinking problems whom were already loitering in the area. Bad part on the city for allowing it to open. I thought that per the ...

Re: Downtown Minneapolis Retail News
It's still super busy, not sure why people hanging out in front of the store would shut down a store. Already a bit ridiculous that it closes at 6. There's a big rush at 5 to get groceries before close. I am sure once more people are back downtown, the hours will return to normal business hours. Re...

The street-length lobby and amenity space along 4th for the 365 Nicollet never should have been permitted.

Re: Washington and Portland Mixed Use - 20 stories - 226'
Man, 3rd could be a good street for continued retail, restaurant use for the stadium and new density. Walk-up units and fitness rooms just take that away entirely. I've frowned on street level walk-ups and street level amenity spaces in all these new development for a while, especially in the downt...
