Is it odd that my biggest problem is the missed opportunity to connect Hudson Rd to Hudson Rd? That kind of thing always annoys the ^$* out of me

How about giving hBRT lines metallic colors and LRT lines primary colors? Rename the Orange line to Silver, and Red to, umm, copper? For colors, how about teal, maroon, purple, yellow to go with blue, green, red and orange I have no issues with the mix of colors and letters - colors could represent ...

Looks like it's happening: https://www.mprnews.org/story/2018/11/2 ... PAm9gYeySo

So, in a few years I-94 will be 6 lanes from 494/694 to 610, 8 LANES from 610 to 101, http://www.dot.state.mn.us/metro/projects/i94rogers/pdf/faq.pdf then back to six lanes through Albertville, 4 lanes to Monticello, and then back to six again to Clearwater... And they still aren't sure if they're g...

They did have streetcar stops inside the (at the time, much larger) fort, but no big stations. Of course, the bridge that carried them was much farther east than the current one; it was almost to the pentagon north central tower. And, the walls and most of the original buildings of the "histori...

Maybe with the coming death of Sears, there would be the opportunity to bulldoze the east ramp and expand the mall in that direction.

Of course, they'll probably say they need $$$ to put 24th below grade...

And back in the early 90's planning of what became the mid-2000's reconstruction of 52, they looked at capping the freeway from 2nd to 6th Ave SW

Is this their Union Flats project? 217 units on the corner of Hampden and Territorial, will officially be 787 Hampden

We did have baseboards upstairs (the house was actually from 1900 and had been converted into a up/down duplex in the fifties, so the upstairs was separate until the owner before us re-combined them). Depending on how much the ductwork costs, it's probably worth knocking your electric bill in half i...

Not sure on the gravity furnace upgrade part, but just swapping out our 1950's forced air furnace and adding AC ran close to $7500 twelve years ago, and that was with me personally running the ductwork to the second floor and basement ahead of time. I can tell you the electric and gas bills in the w...

Strange they'd close Rosedale but not University Ave... must be some lease language somewhere.

And they built the bridge on 5th first to handle detours. The old pedestrian bridge over the tracks near there got moved to the south side of University by Peik gym. I'd say 94-96 range

The old Pep Boys / Circuit City strip mall and the dead car lot

Because hospitals used to be built in a utilitarian fashion, and now health insurance companies jokingly play "Can you tell the difference between a hospital and a hotel?" when giving fluffy speeches about why they charge so much. This. So much so. The health care industry seems to not kn...

I just want to know when 6 story buildings became "towers"

Minneapolis ain't Grand Marais...

Big Top has to move so Shields Ave can be extended east to the stadium

I'm gonna assume that last really weird stall will be walled off as the maintenance guy's storage area. Spare parks take up a LOT of room, and no F@$% designers ever seem to plan for it. Especially in affordable housing, where there will always be an emphasis on repair over replace. You also will ne...

So, we just need another modern one somewhere around 7th and University?

Is that the last one left?

Not to mention enclosed front porches have a nasty habit of becoming storage dumps.
