I think that small brick building is condos. Might have just been too much effort to buy out each owner.

Re: Minneapolis 2040 Comprehensive Plan
I hope it's an isolated thing. I really don't think it's appropriate for neighborhood groups to be amplifying the voices of the homeowners who make up those boards and who undoubtedly are already submitting individual comments. I was just curious if there was a movement afoot in other 'hoods.

According to the meeting announcement, the meeting is being held because CM Gordon indicated that comments submitted by neighborhood organ...

Re: Smaller Scale Multi-Family Infill
Even if this gets watered down to just duplexes or triplexes, that would still be significant.

Re: RE: Re: Northeast (and Southeast) - General Topics
I agree that clearing brush would enhance views of the river and downtown, but I think it's unlikely. The natural areas bordering St. Anthony Main are part of the national park and outside of invasive buckthorn (which likely makes up a good chunk of the brush) the understory vegetation is an import...

Re: Minneapolis City Council and Park Board Elections 2017
I think Cano would have been vulnerable if she had drawn a decent challenger, but Schiff was not it. Ward 9 just had bad options on the ballot.

Re: Minneapolis City Council and Park Board Elections 2017
Yeah that will be really close. I was hoping that Goodman would no longer be chair of the Community Development Committee. But if she's good at arm-twisting some of the new folks to get Palmisano elected prez, she'll get rewarded. I could see her being a good arm-twister.

Yep, the criticisms I heard about Betsy were mostly about her "style" and "lack of presence," not policy matters. Some tough situations were "mishandled." People seemed to want a more showy, charismatic man (nostalgia for RT?). I really don't see Frey doing any better t...

Re: Cedar/Minnehaha/Franklin Intersection
I'll add that it looks like Hennepin County wants to discourage all pedestrian crossings at 20th Ave. The new median curb blocks the crosswalks at 20th Ave. I went through there with a stroller the other day and when crossing at 20th Ave, and I couldn't walk directly across the street. I had to swer...
