Re: North Loop Green - Hines - 350 N 5th St(?) - 35 stories - 393'/418'

365 Phase 2 is dead from what I've heard, Ryan tower is stalled and Alatus is a wildcard.

Re: Lyndale 4-3 Conversion and Bryant Avenue Reconstruction

Yes it does! The city needs to address a lot of bike gaps, but this one is by far the most frustrating. If someone is heading from the West, they could take the Bryant flyover and drop down, but if you're East of Lyndale, good luck. This with the addition of making Harriet a bike boulevard would hel...

Re: Street, Road and Highway Projects

Observing Lyndale and 24th today. It's loud and unpleasant. Cars are impatient to get around people who are trying to turn. The traffic flow is spaced enough that people could be using one lane, but cars use the right lane to go 10-15 over the speed limit. A 4-3 here is long overdue and I can't wait...

Re: Public Transit News / Current Events (MN only)

Any word on when the 113 and 114 will be running? Are they typically only in service during the active semesters at the U?

Re: Downtown Hotel News

Yes, Miami topped the charts at 74.5%

Bottom ones were Boston, DC, Chicago, SF and Minneapolis. I'm wondering how smaller scale markets like Dubuque and Des Moines are doing in April?

The other building here is likely dead? My friends working in REIT think so at least. Don't know where Development Tracker gets their info.

Re: Uptown-LynLake-Wedge - News & General Topics

Heh, so I hadn't been to Uptown in a while either. I was expecting a ghost town as all of you said. Instead I got families, packed beaches, people put walking dogs, kids playing in front yards, so on and so on. Uptown Cleaners building only had one vacant space out of 10. Lake & Irving still ho...

Re: George Floyd murder and aftermath

She's the city council president. Kind of a busy position to hold. I've found it pretty easy to set up a time to chat if I call the councilmemebers aid and schedule something. Sometimes emails just get mixed up in the mess.

Thanks for the insight Matt. Really adding some productivity to this conversation. However many of us are still reeling from the trauma of being nearly slammed by a semi last year on a highway,, being ambushed by cops shooting tear gas from their SUVs and all along with that the murder of George Flo...
