That’s the key, it must be built with residential, office, or entertainment above it.

I’m disappointed to see that there isn’t a WebCam to follow the construction progress.

I’ve sat on those plastic seats, personally I find that they hurt your back side. I understand that they’re easier to clean, but I’m not the biggest fan of them.

Maybe they’re going so fast because they want to have the ground all dug out before the winter.

I certainly see what people are saying about the importance of the retail at that corner. I don’t know much about commercial financing stuff, so I’m going to ask if you questions. 1. Why is there not going to be additional commercial space provided in the new building? 2. If there were to be additio...

Not related to the current discussion about the hotel and checkpoint: I have navigated around terminal one a few different occasions. Do people actually use the B concourse? From the map, those gates seem super small. I understand the continued conversation about expanding the airport, but are all t...

No, we need them.

Over 300+ firearms packed and carry-ons?

Wouldn’t that be great if Rochester got bus only lanes before the cities! Go Rochester!

Can someone post the most recent planning commission documents for this development? Would like to take a look at the renderings.

There certainly needs to be better service near the Excelsior and grand area. Hopefully one of the arterial bus rapid transit lines will address that.

Not excited to see that there won't be a stop on the riverfront (e.g. Hennenpin/1st and 2nd or Main) not great for access to those destinations or transfer options in NE. Central & University/4th are both pretty hostile intersections and I don't trust MNDOT to improve them anytime soon (even with A...

Anyone know when the transit center opens? The new one?

Anyone know the latest on the project just south of 10th St. and west of Hennepin? I thought they were supposed to start construction on two different hotels this summer?

They had a financing partner, why exactly did they pull out? Do we know why?

If it is dead, that’s really disappointing. I know how hard they fought the neighborhood Association. I don’t know anything about market analysis, or market trends, or even the state of our housing market, but maybe things are starting to slow down. Maybe this can be built in the next cycle.

About time.

I’ve only been there a few times, but from what I can tell that target does really well. With that being said, I wish they would re-develop the blocks closest to University. I believe it’s target that owns the parking lots immediately south of the Hamlin station.

I don’t know exactly how feasible this would be, but what about running shuttles from the C ramp over to the building? I’ve thought about this with a lot of office developments in downtown. If you could run shuttles, people wouldn’t need to park so close to where they work. Walking five blocks can b...

Glad to hear this one is still working its way through the planning/preconstruction process. Hopefully construction starts on this one sometime next year. I always worry that we’re going to be hit with an economic slowdown, and some of these great developments won’t happen. Sent from my iPhone using...

That last point, the one about a smart developer adding a convenient store to the bottom level of the building, is especially important to me. I don’t live in the neighborhood, but when I do venture up there on the light rail, it’s always nice to know that there is a gas station fairly close to targ...
