What should the city do with Target Center if/when the Wolves build a new arena? I looked at some possibilities as well as the remaining debt and lease term on the building.
The taps have literally run dry at Pimento on the Lake as the once promising Bde Maka Ska eatery faces mounting financial trouble
The massive Wells Fargo campus in South Mpls — 25 acres, 1 million square feet of office space and 4,000 parking stalls — sold for just $8 million, per a new state filing.
If you got a Naz Reid tattoo you are now required by law to cover it up with the exact same tattoo scheme of LaMelo Ball
I was curious about the lot size so I did a little poking around. This one is actually slightly larger than the Rosa Apartments site at 42nd and Nicollet, which has 79 units.
Park Board commissioners signaled that they're going to close the Minnehaha dog park within the next six months, following feedback from Dakota people about the sacred site
Of course I asked and continue to ask about this. The mayor said it's an open question and they are still working on it. Hard to imagine anything besides a teardown. But the former Memphis basketball arena was turned into a massive Bass Pro Shops
Ramsey County again swings for the fences with riverfront plan. I raise the idea that maybe downtown St. Paul just needs a single or a double.
Downtown Minneapolis can only truly be back when the Walgreens sushi station returns
People didn't want to buy and sell houses in January. It was the slowest month for sales since December 2007. Minnesota Realtors suggests non-market factors are at play. I think we all know what happened here, even if they won't say it.

I'm not sure who runs it, but it's this cage right here on 5th Street. I noticed it when biking to a Vikings game in Sept.
Edina city staff are recommending denial for the proposal to add a second floor to the current Barrio building at 50th and France, which is slated to become a Daniel del Prado restaurant. They say the addition requires them to find more parking since it will increase capacity.
There's a growing concern that Normandale Lake Office Park – one of the most valuable properties in MN — is going to deteriorate because of a maneuver by an out of state investor. One of the five Bloomington towers just sold at 4% of its 2022 sale price. Expect more of that
I LOL'd at this in @racketmn.com and I promise it wasn't me! But also, I very disappointed that the local alt-weekly folks aren't experts on this topic (based on their story about trying edibles a ways back)
Why local developers aren't building apartments anymore. A case study. Flux Apartments in Uptown (pictured here). 216 units 2019: Sold for $54M Tuesday: Sold for $36.1M That's $167,000 per unit. If you wanted to build Flux today it would likely cost in the ballpark of $71M or $330K per unit.
