@natehoodstp How many of the people in the video above are tourists? A European city that is swelled by thousands of visitors will necessarily have more bars and restaurants, and some of them will be playing music.
@vincempls @Gebo___ @NortonMpls@LefebvreJackson But this particular block was already almost entirely parking lot a long time before I-394. (See this 1938 aerial from the UofM collection.)
@smellgibs0n@daviss The new Green Line station has been referred to as "West Lake Street" in documents. Not sure if the existing Blue Line station will be changed to "East Lake Street"?
@vincempls@cityofsaintpaul Just because the zoning might allow it doesn't mean that the market is interested in building it. Pretty sure that the Allianz superblock already has approved plans to build very high density projects and things are moving very slowly, and at lower densities.
@urbanevesen Fairly certain that the trail that appears to lead to nowhere is in preparation for an upcoming underpass beneath Plymouth Avenue. There was a maintenance agreement for this in a recent City Council agenda, so I think it's actually happening.
@kayleefabulous I'd love to see comparative info on the hull forms of the ships on the Great Lakes. Rounded hull of the 1000'ers vs bulbous bows of salties vs traditional bows of older lakers vs the newest classes of lakers. Cost to build vs efficiency, etc.
@emlap98@nickhaltermpls I meant "least *commercially* attractive", but in addition to being ugly, there are some pretty fundamental design flaws that make these towers problematic.
