Parkway West Apartments - (46th St E & 46th Ave S)

[martykoessel]

This 48-unit apartment project, currently under construction at 46th and 46th, near the Minneapolis end of the Ford Bridge, is currently under construction. Am I missing a thread elesewhere, or is this the start of it?

Good to see the end is in sight for this hole in the ground.

Oh yeah, it is up to the third floor. I drove through there two weeks ago. And it wasn't a whole in the ground, it was a raised concrete platform

those are real nice! street level entries, simple but well placed cladding, decent shape. I like!

This is nearly done -- there's been a banner up for at least a few weeks now saying "Now leasing Feb. 2013".

I'm guessing this was a condo project gone bust? Google streetview shows signs with the name "46th and 46th" advertising luxury condos for sale.

I can't believe it sat dormant for so long though. Love that part of town. You could have Minnehaha Falls in your backyard and eat at Sea Salt every day in the summer.

...especially since the line would practically start at 46th and 46th on a nice warm evening! But yes, good location and I hope these do well.

Is there some type of allergic market that is not being served?

Gluten-free is so hot right now

Is it just me, or is that wall rather hostile to the sidewalk? Not that big of a deal in this location as it is across from some of the best trails/parks/open space in the city, but still.

There's a bit of a drop in grade, and the intersection is ugly to begin with. If there's some space between the sidewalk and the wall to plant some ivy, I think it'll work.
