Anyone know the status of the Cambria "showroom" or whatever it is that is being constructed on the street level of the WCCO building off of South 7th and and 2nd Avenue? They have replaced the windows and added a couple of doors but have placed Cambria stickers over the windows so I can't...

So this is probably a dumb question but why won't this line get its own color? Is it because you will be able to go all the way from Eden Prarie to downtown St. Paul and vice versa without ever having to get off/transfer trains? And the Bottineau is going to be the Blue line extension, so is that be...

Just my opinion, but I feel like the only way the Vikings can justify not having a true retractable roof is if there is some other feature that mitigates it. For example, a translucent roof. If they end up building a fixed roof stadium, like Ford Field, with a small "retractable window" o...

A tower crane just went up today behind the Walker Art Center. Any idea what it's for?

Will this have underground parking?

So with the Interchange extending the light rail tracks, is it pretty much assumed that the Southwest Line will happen? I also agree with the other poster that this seems to be an odd area for people to want to gather and hang out other than for twins games as there is little to nothing to do in the...

Does anyone know if they ever set up a webcam for this project or if they are planning on doing so?

Across Lake

What's up with the lot across the street? Seems like a great parcel for development.

Some pics I snapped today.

I've always thought that the surface parking lot between the library and Washington Ave would be a great place for a park since Cancer Survivor's Park is right there! It could be combined with Cancer Survivor's park by just ending Nicollet at S. 3rd as it dead ends at Washington Avenue anyways.

It drives me crazy that there won't be a stop in Uptown. That is all.

It would be great if the huge lot in between the sexton and the armory were developed! I can't stand that surface lot, it's like an invisible barrier to the city.

This is a nice looking building and quite massive but I have just about had it with six floor structures. Why is every single residential building that is going up always six levels?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!

Detroit has the MGM, Greektown Casino and Motor City Casino. All 3 are large and Greektown and MGM are pretty nice. Detroit really messed up by not having them all built along the riverfront and next to one another. Now if you go to one, there is no way to walk to another. They are way too spread ou...

Concerning the webcam for the Loring Park tower, I just called and talked to Brian Gordon (Project Manager) about having a webcam. They're actually working on that at this time. So, I suspect before long, they'll have a webcam for all of us to view the progress. Awesome, I am looking forward to tha...

Wish they had a webcam on this site like they do at the Interchange!

If OPUS has the financing, what is the delay!?!?!?!
