From Minneapolis Business Journal and StarTribune. Hennepin County Medical Center is building a $191 million, 322,000-square-foot medical clinic and specialty center downtown Minneapolis next to its campus.

In theory, yes. In application, most often not. https://www.google.com/maps/place/Pappy ... 2e2e1b3967

Banning any kind of landscape rock and requiring irrigation would help.

Oh ouch good point there. That example isn't covering much at all.

From the StarTribune City Hall has banned new surface parking lots downtown. Now it’s pushing to enforce existing requirements for landscaping. http://www.startribune.com/local/west/253670271.html Sounds good to me. This will at least hide them a little behind fences and or trees/shrubs and make the...

Magellan Development and Ryan Cos. US Inc. are in talks about working together on a 27-story hotel and apartment tower near the new Minnesota Vikings stadium.

I heard on fox9 news tonight they might implode at least part of the metrdome after all. I assume its due to the partial collapse from earlier this week. They said it could be as early as this Sunday morning. I don't have an article or video to post at this time so its a wait and see i guess.

Opus has owned the land since 1986. Damn talk about taking your time developing it. http://www.bizjournals.com/twincities/b ... polis.html

In other news they started taking down the actual metrodome the other day. You can see the progress on the stadium view of the webcam.

Here is a little more info from the Biz Journal. http://www.bizjournals.com/twincities/b ... condo.html
