Re: Ford Site Redevelopment

Reclamation continues, should have all of the existing asphalt/concrete surfaces removed and stockpiled by the end of next week. Onsite crushing of those materials should happen soon after that, probably will take 8-10 days to process. No word on how close the city is to approving the modified utili...

Re: Southwest LRT (Green Line Extension)

There will be an acceleration of the 94 re-surfacing from 280 to Nicollet due to the shelter order. That is the only project I have heard being pushed up.

Re: Art and Architecture Building Development - 3338 University Ave SE - 14 Stories / 155'

No that is a separate project for an extended stay hotel Home2.
Thank you.

The Home2 developer is allowing us to finish the demolition and stabilize the site. They will not begin building until things settle down.

Re: Work from home and road congestion

For those living in apartments or still working in an building with elevators, how are you handling that aspect? Is the elevator disinfected regularly? How do you handle crowded stairwells? I moved my oldest daughter home from college yesterday. Two trips required use of the elevator. (heavy items) ...

Re: Ford Site Redevelopment

We have begun work. Reclamation of asphalt and concrete surfaces will be stockpiled at the south end of the former paint building footprint. Once crushing starts, it will be stockpiled on-site, at the south end of the paint parking lot. The deer are annoyed. The coyotes are skittish. The ducks are i...

Re: Work from home and road congestion

Interesting about the U.K. I doubt the same holds true here, I am of the opinion most people don’t adjust/program their thermostat to conserve while at work.

Re: Archive Apartments (Not West Elm Hotel & Condos) - 102-120 1st Street N

Ground retention anchors have been removed from the sub-levels. The post-tension decks have all reached their 90 day cures, and the connecting pour strips all passed and are cured.
Our remaining work is to remove and replace the sidewalk when the project nears completion.

I do have couple of small items to share. Ryan is placing their job site office trailer on the east side, directly south of Lunds. Excellent visibility of the site there. Access will be next to the employee parking lot behind their store. They open at 6:00, city has a noise ordinance thru 7:00. No e...

Re: 1400 Park Avenue

Stormwater retention tanks have been installed in the NE corner. The rest of the foundation in that corner (which only goes down one story, not two) can now be installed.
Demolition of the church on the west side rumors are swirling once again.

According to someone who works for the company moving it, (but not on this project specifically) the building is staying onsite?

Highland 9 hole proposal to reuse the land for soccer fields, skate park, and pickle ball. Thank goodness they’re going over there. The 18 hole side is a nightmare. The water towers on the west side leak (a lot) so bad that they didn’t have pipe in a water supply, they just pump out of the ponds on...
