MN: Is this adding to the shortage of high income housing? Pity. Personally, I wouldn't want a house on any of the lakes in the city. Too crowded. By the way, what makes any of this our business? It's private property. Mike Nelson Central TEMPORARY REMINDER: 1. Don't feed the troll! Ignore obvious flame-bait. 2.
