List,
Has anyone thought about moving the new Walker Library back to the old Walker Library site across Hennepin? I understand that Pagoda, the upscale spa that has been in that space for about 6 months, is closing shop and, again, the building will sit vacant. I dont' know why the library originally left that site, but it is a beautiful old building, a protected historic resource in Minneapolis, right next to the transit stop, and if modifications could be made to the building (ADA requirements met, necessary technology improvements, maybe an outdoor cafe in the front courtyard....), the parcel across the street could be condos and upscale Uptown shops beneath.
Perhaps someone has proposed this already. But, as a poet once said, maybe what lasts is what you start with.
