I still wish the dealership was willing to move to the empty lot they already own right across the street, but oh well. Do agree with improving pedestrian/bike infrastructure on excelsior since I've biked on it and it ranges from "not fun" to "life-threatening".That's why I propose (jokingly) that they rename it Hopkins Honda Station.Part of me is kinda glade Hopkins is the first place to get track laid
But the fact that the image they used has the Honda dealership is in full view less then 100ft away from the station still kinda stings
Would be nice if Excelsior Boulevard were calmed and more pedestrian- and bike-oriented so 1) it's easier getting between the station and downtown Hopkins and 2) the entire stretch from the western edge of Minneapolis to Hopkins is more pleasant and easy to access without a car. People who want to drive fast can use Highway 7.
Although I can already see some people arguing along the lines of "you don't need bike lanes on excelsior, you already have the cedar lake trail
