Re.: City of Lakes Redevelopment
I haven't attended any Stevens Square Housing & Development Committee meetings lately, but the minutes from the meetings are posted on its website.
Here's a link to that page:

Here's what happened... The Heritage Preservation Commission did not approve of the demolition of the Janney Building nor the construction of the 23-story tower. The neighborhood supported an appeal of the HPC's decision regarding the Janney Building, but did not support appealing the decision regarding the tower. The Planning Commission did not support the demolition of the Janney Building. The PC did not consider the proposed tower.
In short: the developer has gone back to the drawing board.
Despite what Bapster said earlier in this thread, the registration problem at minnescraper.com hasn't been fixed (at least not for me). Since I can't register there, I can't post there.
The PM you sent me at mnpulse.com must not have worked.
Feel free to post this over at minnescraper if you'd like.
