Re: Minneapolis & St. Paul Fantasies and Speculations

1200's idea is great. We should get behind this, or t least I would. More protected bike lanes in general is a dream of mine. Also adapting another road going north and south would be awesome, maybe Portland or Chicago. This kind of infrastructure could really boost property values and enhance inter...

Re: RS Eden Emanuel 822 Third St. S

Thats pretty cool.

I have been waiting for that project. Do you think mega bus will still use that adjacent lot for their stop?

Re: Introductions

I am Douglas, It is nice to meet both of you. I have been living in MPLS for about 4 years now with my new wife. We live in Whittier and we love it. I am on this site because I loved Minnescraper but those hacks couldn't keep it together so I guess the real people that care are here now. I work for ...

Re: Logos

I think something involving the 3 gentlemen in the skyline would be appreciated, also a water feature.

Block E (Not casino)

Now that it has been resolved that there will not be a casino in the Block E location, what should go there? Personally, I would like more store fronts at street level, maybe a Best Buy or a Cub Foods... There has been discussion of a media company buying high visibility office space here. Hopefully...

Re: Loring Park Office Building Apartments

Is that a floor? or do you think they are creating a loft feature in that apt?

Re: Target Center Renovation

I agree, I like the renovation as far as we can see now. They need to correct the main entrance from 1st avenue... It is so frustrating being bottle necked up through that small opening. The bowl itself and the corridors, are not too bad, some modernization will just help the building over all. I wo...

Re: Block E Casino

I still think that a downtown casino is a bad idea. Especially there where there is already an issue with crime.

I think pointing to Cleveland and Toledo as successful mid-west cities with a casino is ridiculous.

Re: Radisson Blu

I am not sure on that, The orange looks good to me too. I think in reality the different levels created on the face are a lot more distinguishable than they were in the rending. I am glad that this isn't such a huge monolith like Hyatt in DT or some of the other hotels that get built. Obviously sinc...

Re: Mall of America

Thats what I thought. That the upper two floors were going to be cut up. I think that that will be successful.

Re: Oaks Station Place

I actually like it. Hopefully, because if its high level of visibility it is well kept. I did not follow, but did you say that there is another section or tower that has not even been begun yet?

Also, good use of the mansart roof. under-used today, imo.

Uptown Theatre

Gutted and being renovated. The iconic marquee remains as does the lime stone. New interior includes a bar and new screen as I am told. Not sure if they are keeping the cockroaches or not.

Re: Walker Library

Do we know anything about that?

I haven't seen any new designs in a long time
