Um... Did you read the article or even my post up a few in this thread? The Target Express is going into the Barnes & Noble.

I did, but I have heard potentially otherwise. Maybe it's a third location they're scouting.

One possible place this could be headed is to the current St. Paul Whole Foods location.

If the team paid for the stadium, they would most likely use it as a practice facility as well. No sense spending extra cash renting another location 3-4 times a week. Yes, a soccer team would only have 18-20 home pages during the season, but the stadium would most likely be chosen over the new Vik...

The Farmer's Market site could serve as a venue to expand the Basilica Block Party and a possible venue to move Soundset back into the city.

If I’m counting correctly, there are 14 soccer-specific MLS stadiums, and only 3 are located near a downtown, and all of those required fairly significant public contributions in order to be built. An entirely private, downtown, soccer-specific stadium would be unprecedented. My guess is you'll see...

they need to find some funds in the couch cushions and make downtown east a center island station already. it's beyond ridiculous making all of these people cross the tracks to the other side to transfer lines. it's po dunk small town stupidity. saturday, coming back from the soccer match was just ...

http://kstp.com/news/stories/S3522298.shtml?cat=1 Previously, Bagley has made it clear the Vikings think their new stadium is the place for an MLS team, but sources say McGuire and Pohlad want to build an outdoor soccer stadium next to Target Field in what's known as the farmer's market site. It wou...

HuskyGrad, do you know why the train stops at the pedestrian crossing a block west of the Fairview station and blows its horn twice before proceeding to the station? I'd assume the neighbors asked for this because of the large number of disabled folks that live in this area, but was wondering if th...

Yesterday, my trip from Fairview to Nicollet topped my previous best on this segment by about 5 minutes.

Putting together the Big Crane. The white and green steel in your photo is all structural steel for the stadium. The Big Crane (that's yellow & can move) is in the background, correct ? I believe the green steel will be temporary supporting structure while they erect the structure. Sent from my...

The idea would be to have 2 long-car trains that take up the same amount of space as our current 3-car trains, but have less wasted space on cabs and couplings The current operations and maintenance facilities are set up to accommodate the current LRV length. Any change in length would require sign...

This may have been talked about previously... I didn't read all 126 pages of this thread. I know it's way too late for this to be done but wouldn't it have made sense to bring the the line down Flying Cloud Drive, connect Flying Cloud Airport, go over the river, and hit Valleyfair, Canterbury, and ...

MetroTransit has staff riding the trains to record delays within the line.

Here's the MOU for design, detailing the station area improvements at each Minneapolis station: http://www.metrocouncil.org/News-Events/Transportation/News-Articles/FINAL-MOU-design.aspx Hopefully someone can help with this technical stuff. Why is embedded track an upgrade at Royalston? What's the ...

Is this picture part of the crane or the main steel support beam??? https://twitter.com/vikings/status/483736815384272896 The wording makes it sound like that is the beginning of the crane. Really???? Is the beginning of the structural framing. The crane has a structure that has tubular members. Se...

This is the type of the programming that will give it a chance at being an active, livable space.

It should be a priority to come up with a connection between TFS and the Cedar Lake Trail.

This thread moves fast, so this might have been brought up already, but the University-Huron intersection is a total mess with the signaling. I ate an entire slice of Mesa pizza waiting for the eastbound light to turn green. I would presume the light did turn green, but there is a car that illegall...

or hopefully MPLS at SWLRT

Don't go there

Speaking of SWLRT, KA has been causing some difficulties there as well. \
