Re: Downtown Minneapolis Retail News

The store was critical to the Loring Park and CBD residential community.

They close at 6. Local residents can't even get there after work before the store closes. With their current hours they could close the store completely and I'd barley notice.

Re: Downtown Minneapolis Retail News

It appears Target has no intention to return the store to normal hours.

This thing has to be close to topped off, right?

Photoshop the cranes out and this would make a nice post apocalyptic photo. I thought I'd like this building as much as the Carlyle but I don't.

Re: The Dayton's Project

These hours are pretty disappointing. Monday through Saturday 10-6 & Sunday 12-5. What's even the point? I hate to be negative, but after years of renovation they seem to be trying to make the retail portion of this project fail. https://m.facebook.com/story.php?story_fbid=936783520380106&id...

Re: The Dayton's Project

I'm glad it's finally opening too and I love the idea of small local vendor's but these just aren't exciting options Imho.

Re: The Dayton's Project

The Dayton's Project announced a retail opening on November 18th and a new website. The vendor list looks pretty lacking. Hopefully they can pick up some additional tenants before they open. https://m.facebook.com/story.php?story_fbid=918199198905205&id=181384859253313&m_entstream_source=tim...

I doubt Banana Republic will be interested the Dayton's Project. They pretty recently closed their store directly across the street.

Re: The Larking - 800 Park - 17 stories - 172'

I hate to be negative but the downtown Target doesn't count anymore since it closes at 6.

From my perspective with the limited hours it might as well not even be there anymore.

Re: The Dayton's Project

I guess I was wrong about the eventual foreclosure. The Dayton's Project was able to secure a new loan and they plan on a November opening.

Good news.

Re: The Dayton's Project

This is an interesting article. It says 601 doesn't have the money to finish the build out. I understand the pandemic delays, but they had significant delays before the pandemic too. I'm pretty certain there will be a foreclosure eventually. https://m.startribune.com/daytons-project-in-minneapolis-a...

Re: Downtown Minneapolis Restaurant News

Starbucks on 4th St next to Commons Park is closing on the 25th according to a sign on the door. This one has stayed consistently busy through the pandemic because of the seating at the park right outside their door. I wonder why they would hang on for this last year and a half only to close as thin...

With all the restrictions lifted and business slowly returning to normal has anyone heard when the Skyways and Target will return to regular hours?

Re: The Dayton's Project

Looks like the Dayton's Project isn't in compliance with the terms of their loan. Their lender is moving to foreclosure because they aren't meeting their agreed upon leasing requirements.

Then, the Nicollet Diner space on the corner of 15th and Nicollet will become a pizza, chicken, and hoagie-focused sports bar. This was supposed to have already...
