FOR LEASE sign came down at 3012 Lyndale and there were guys in construction vests inside a few days ago. Any news on this?

This looks like it might have started construction. There is a new hole in the ground where this will be going.

The apartment complex formerly known as Melrose (at least, when I lived there) is getting some new siding. I wasn't able to get a picture, but the new color scheme didn't seem like much to write home about. Certainly better than the really dated pink and green that it was.

Our landlord emailed us a few hours ago letting us know that they are trying to get the property rezoned. I would think our landlord has a pretty good case for th...

Soooooo.... funny story. I actually live in one of the units in 2924 Grand and we just came home to an eviction notice due to "illegal building" taped to our front door. Our landlord hasn't contacted us about this yet, but they've never been the proactive type. There wasn't really any info...
