Re: University of Minnesota
I lived in the Dinnaken House on Washington last year, and although it was a nice apartment, it was not nearly as amenity-filled as the newer places are. I paid about $420 to split a room in a two bedroom apartment (Would have been about $840 for my own room). Two of my roommates decided to live in ...

U of M Bike Trail
I could not find a post about this... but the bike trail in the ditch underneath Dinkytown is currently under construction. There is some pretty interesting landscaping around the area, including nice lampposts in the ditch itself and a complete overhaul over by the TCF Stadium/Research corridor.

Re: 301 Walnut (Sally's Building)
From the RCA document... "The appellant owns the adjacent property at 718 Washington Avenue Southeast, a 3-story building. Part of the reason for the appeal is a concern that the differences in height between the two buildings will cause drifting and accumulation of snow on the 3-story building...

Re: 301 Walnut (Sally's Building)
http://www.ci.minneapolis.mn.us/meetings/planning/WCMS1P-106221 Very happy they approved the lowering of the parking requirements (Variance I). I may have been sick to see more pointless and underutilized garage spaces being constructed. With WaHu in pause mode, I wonder what CPM's next move will be...

Re: House of Hanson Site (14th Avenue SE & 5th Street SE)
Did anyone happen to go to (or even hear about) this meeting? " http://www.tcdailyplanet.net/news/2013/03/18/neighborhood-notes-diane-hofstede-hear-community-views-development-dinkytown It scares me to think of what may have been said. "The public forum, sponsored by the Dinkytown Business...

Re: 301 Walnut (Sally's Building)
Lets hope that market forces do lower the price eventually. I think the base issue was that the U was set up as a metro commuter school between 1960ish-2005ish. It was really when TCF Stadium was built and the U decided not to move parking elsewhere but actually decrease the total number of spots wh...

Re: 301 Walnut (Sally's Building)
min-chi-cbus, I agree. I am a non-resident by the Us standards, and the out-of-state tuition is a bargain compared to other B10 schools. I know the U gets quite the rap for being bloated (which I think it is in some aspects), but I have to give them credit for having a low out-of-state rate when mos...

Re: Mill & Main - (501 Main Street Southeast)
Like other peoples exasperations, I am disappointed that it is another 6-story apartment. That being said, I love that it will continue to bring out the A-Mill as the prominent structure along Main Street. Also, I love that the investment near the river is still continuing in general. This is probab...

Re: 301 Walnut (Sally's Building)
I'm not terribly surprised that this is going up, but I had no idea CPM owned the building. This is the last surface parking lot facing Washington (unless you count the entrance by Stub & Herbs and the entrance near Burger King). I think if I remember correctly, this isn't even on the docket for...
