Re: Target Center Renovation

We're stuck with it for years. Yes, the improvements were nice. Did very little for attending an actual game/event there. Total waste of money but we own it and RT probably got some side gigs from it.

Re: Target Center Renovation

A new arena would be cool, as long as no public money is involved. 🙂 The renovation was lipstick on a pig and just another Glen Taylor failure.

Re: Hiawatha-Minnehaha Corridor - General Topics

Not sure we need more self storage on Hiawatha but I definitely wish some of my street parking neighbors would look into it.

Re: Hiawatha-Minnehaha Corridor Development & MinHi Line

Dirt being moved this morning at 3801 Hiawatha. Is this for something, or are they just landscaping the empty lot?
Hmmm, I don’t remember if this one was approved.

Re: Southside - News & General Topics

Interesting. Thought this lot might be heading for another Mod42 type development. Good to keep Angry Catfish in the hood. Still miss the hardware store though.

Re: Street, Road and Highway Projects

60 on 394 is fine. I would’ve kept the Crosstown at 55. Not many places where people are speeding on that stretch.

Re: Hiawatha-Lake - Minnehaha - Downtown Longfellow

I was hopeful they could somewhat replicate the old building. Looks like a pretty good job of that.

Re: Southside - News & General Topics

Interesting that they are rebuilding (I assume) the Holiday at 46th and Hiawatha to be oriented toward the sidewalk.

Re: B Line Lake St Rapid Bus, Midtown Rail Transit

Yeah, Lake St is already a mess. Especially in the winter when people still insist on parking on it on heavy snow years. Midtown rail could be so great, especially if they could line it up with the Blue and Green lines. Disappointing that we have heard so little about it from our politicians.

Re: Minneapolis Park and Recreation Board

The history does need to be communicated and its important to the area but I also dont see how that cant be done even if its switched from a 18 to a 9 hole. Could anyone give some insight on this? As a golfer, the preference is always to play 18 holes. Having 18 holes also allows more people to be ...
