Regarding St. Joe: there are a ton of CSB|SJU students who could make use of such a stop.

MPRB has also published long-range plans for Minnehaha Creek. https://www.minneapolisparks.org/project_updates/check-out-initial-plans-outlining-the-future-of-parks-and-trails-along-minnehaha-creek/ Segment 3 is of the greatest interest to me, as we live just north of the parkway. 3-1A is my selfish...

B Line has a website up: https://www.metrotransit.org/b-line-project

... but every one of these projects link up in some way or another, and as a whole will dramatically improve transit service for a lot of people in Minneapolis.

You aren't kidding. The map on that site is pretty exciting.

Considering I have my eye on the VW I.D. BUZZ and I live in &^#$%ing cold Minneapolis, that was a good article to read. Should probably set aside some $$$ to insulate and heat the garage by the time the new bus is available.

You should get some clarification on which one goes first. The images are swapped relative to the descriptions. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Turtle Bread/Pizza Biga definitely have tables outside. We sit there whenever the weather allows (and we always walk or bike, regardless of season). Although we’re debating giving them up because of this.

We will absolutely use a BRT stop here. Looking forward to it, in fact.
