so no mention of the actual hotel brand? or is JMI a hotel? never heard of it. this must be the hotel developer.530 feet including the spire.
JMI is the hotel partner. 300 room, five star hotel.
And I'm here wearing a bright red rain coat.

cano is insufferable. lisa goodman is a rock star council member, has been since she started.

Re: U.S. Bank Stadium Construction Updates
I have been a Vikings fan for 33 years. I loved Red McCombs, previous owner from Texas, until he gutted the team in order to get the most value for his sale. I even like the Wilf's before the whole stadium drama started. But the way they have acted in about the last 5-8 years has been too much for ...

Re: Downtown Minneapolis Office Market
what damage has been? we have ton of robust, growing companies in the twin cities metro.
Valspar isn't fortune 500.
they have renovated buildings in downtown east for research and I don't think this space will be just vacated.
it's the nature of business.

Re: Westminster Church
I don't like this. but whatever they own the land.
how much space does this church need. they just did an expansion a couple years ago. waste of land imo. and I agree I don't like that bell contraption. so I suppose we'll have to hear that thing blaring all the time.

Re: U.S. Bank Stadium Construction Updates
not sure what the big deal is. when the twins got a street renamed "twins way" there was barely a peep. that being said I think its more the way the Vikings are making the argument. you read their statements and wonder if they actually believe how pretentious they sound. I mean, god forbid...

Re: Nicollet Mall Reconstruction Project
i agree with lisa goodman. the pavers and the transit shelters were the two things I really liked about this design.
so we're getting a dumbed down pseudo pedestrian mall.

Re: Minneapolis City Politics General Discussion
I'd say the city could net a lot more benefit investing in fixing up streets and infrastructure in places like, say, near northeast (NIEBNA) than in throwing it all away on a little armpit tucked next to some highways just to make billionaire sports owners happy. Let St Paul have this latest mess. ...

Re: U.S. Bank Stadium
"A grotesque monument" to misplaced priorities, broken politics, and submission to blackmail. You can't separate the building from how it got built. Architecture-wise, it's bound to be iconic. An icon is defined by 'a person or thing regarded as a representive symbol of something.' So jus...

Re: Downtown Minneapolis Office Market
this building was featured on every episode of the old mary tyler moore show. the show's wjm tv station offices were there. if you ever want to see a slice of 70's mpls watch the opening credits and first few minutes of this show. awesome stuff.
