Commercial passenger flights arrive there??

Still miss being able to go to the Glockenspiel to get a nice selection of German beers. Or how about a British pub with a wide selection of British beers (like Brit's used to have years ago). Oh well, maybe there's not a market for those kind of bars anymore.. I haven't been to the newly opened Wo...

If the Orange Line is killed (or even delayed), might we see the Chicago BRT and Nicollet BRT/streetcar projects expedited?

It's Greek To Me is being sold:

I'm not a subscriber so have no further details. Lets hope we don't have another vacant property in LynLake.

Definitely much more bland and boring than what's already there.

Looks like a last minute unplanned Nice Ride station just popped up on Nicollet & 37th right in front of Butter.

It looks there are 8 apartments on the top 2 floors. All will be remodeled (including getting A/C). 1st floor will get some sort of restaurant/bar.

Sabri Property is listed as the new tenant.

There's something happening at the Roundup Beer Hall building at 2nd Ave & Lake St. As I passed by on the bus yesterday all the exterior windows had plastic taped over them.

Two patios and a rooftop deck!

MS3 was right. They got frustrated with the 400 foot height limit and gave up.

Now I'm sure this is a regular who's trying to have some fun.

That did it for me too! It's also nice to not see all the distorted houses.

I don't see the new images yet either.

My whole point was, the Vikings wanted to turn Chicago Ave purple. This would do just that while also paying tribute to one of the most renowned personas to ever come out of Minneapolis.

I really couldn't get behind renaming Chicago Ave, Vikings Way. I think I could get behind Prince Ave though. Dumb idea or fitting tribute?
