US Bank at Raymond & University is closing and being sold for redevelopment along with the adjacent parcel to the east. Rumor is 'student housing' whatever that means. Big piece of land with the parking lots. Hopefully something with a good street front in this very walkable district.

Kraus Anderson proposes 6-story with 220 apartments and 2200 s/ft retail.

SOS Furniture is moving to Vadnais Heights this summer.

Looks like Exeter has bought it and has plans

Project Overview: Planned rehabilitation of 1930s vintage warehouse/showroom property into creative office. Located in a certified opportunity zone.

The project on the south side of University Ave at Hampden Ave has finished up. I think it looks really good. Nice big windows, simple and elegant detailing.

Looked into moving in there. I really don't see the appeal of living in the area until industry is more phased out. Definitely a big detriment on health and air quality there.

The paper mill is pretty stinky on warm summer evenings.

There’s kind of surprisingly a lot right around there but no real synergy as a district since it’s mostly specialty stores and in a bit of a dead zone for residential between the Raymond and Westgate stations.
