I noticed that Nord Haus is visible from the upper deck at Target Field yesterday. The panorama of towers will only get better.

Must have been wishful thinking - I saw it from the bus on Central...

It appears a crane and wrecking ball have arrived...

Anyone going tonight (or in the near future)?
