My friend has a site that compiles the images and creates a timelapse. A few of the rejected images here from the 21st-23rd are panned up.

Re: Stadium Parking Ramp Air Rights Development
...Two words: Adaptive Re-use. I like it when old things are incorporated with new things, or in this case, the 3 story existing building's shell could be the base for the ramp + residential tower. People (i.e. myself) find the current shell of the building beautiful, not necessarily its function. ...

Re: St. Cloud Airport
I'd argue that, for many people (especially for the 200,000 in the St. Cloud metro area, and probably for another half million in the northwest suburbs), it probably does make sense. Currently, they only have, what, 100 seats a day flying out of there? You'd certainly think they should be able to m...

Re: Minneapolis Fiber
So I saw Hennipin County Fiber trucks out by my work on Hwy 55 and got excited. Then saw this: http://www.startribune.com/local/west/118296159.html
However, this was from 2011 and I still watch the sea of cars sit on 55 every morning.

Re: Video Games
I really, really enjoyed the transit systems in Cities XL but it didn't have too much staying power with me due to the inability to rezone existing zones--it made the growth feel unrealistic. Also it needed a good copy editing like craaaaaazy. Yeah Cities XL is basically just a sandbox. No real &qu...

Re: Blake Road Corridor
During nearly all day Blake isn't carrying four lanes worth of traffic and in justify a road diet from five lanes to three lanes. Blake's challenge is the back up caused waiting to cross TH7. Cambridge is so near TH7 that the overly long lights crossing cause congestion backing up into the Cambridg...

Re: Video Games
Just found this thread! Here's some before/after images from a game called Cities XL that I immensely enjoy. This is an older city I spent many months slowly improving and growing.

Re: IDS Center
The IDS seems like a more jarring change. There were already some comparably tall buildings when the Foshay was completed. https://i.imgur.com/XmiuMHM.jpg Some sources say this is 1945, others 1930. I don't know how much the skyline changed between those years though. Maybe for its time the Foshay w...

Re: Bicycle Infrastructure
Sort of a bike infrastructure related question, but I'm wondering what thoughts are on the "best" system for bike parking, particularly in apartment buildings. My building just has a bunch of bog standard bike racks (just a bunch of bars in a row) and I basically hate it. It's really easy...
