Re: Southwest LRT (Green Line Extension)

Ah, I must have missed this one. I've been trying to follow SWLRT construction news as closely as I can, and apparently that's not good enough to hear about everything. This trail is going to be amazing when it's done, but this is going to be such a painful few years.

Re: Cemeteries

Fun fact: Beltrami Park used to be a cemetery. There are still bodies buried there.

I wish they were planning to take that ugly wood off of the upper floors too, but it's a good start.

Holy crap, I can't remember the last time I've seen so many negative comments attached to the end of a proposal. That's heartening.

4353 Upton is back, and less attractive than before: http://minneapolismn.gov/www/groups/pub ... 216417.pdf

Re: Gateway Tower (RBC/Four Seasons) - 37 stories - 503'

The porte cochere is totally reasonable (I say this as someone who bikes on Hennepin with great frequency) but I'm really, really not thrilled about that sign getting approved, if for no other reason than the terrible precedent it sets.
