Those of you who are interested in becoming fully informed about the boom
in
condo and loft construction in downtown Minneapolis, be sure to read the
latest
issue of the Skyway News, February 14-20 Who owns downtown
The issue is truly amazing...what an acheivement...from the creative
monopoly
board on the cover to the incredibly detailed, information packed charts
and maps...
to the overview of all the sites potentially hot for development, to the
profiles
of players like the Hines developers, the Short family, and Andrea
Christensen,
and commentary by Lisa Goodman and RT Rybak...
[He says blushingly] Thanks for the high praise! I hope others read it and
comment, to the forum or to the paper.
The best way to see the articles is in print, thanks to our fine production
department. However, for your convenience, the series is now online at
www.skywaynews.net. The lead story has the Hot List map; it's a 6.8 Mb
download - perhaps best downloaded to your desktop - let me know if it
doesn't work!
Reporters Sarah McKenzie and Scott Russell worked their tails off, as did
photographer Rich Ryan and managing editor sue rich and production whizzes
Holly Hillstrom and Bryan Nanista. I left a few brain cells on the pages as
well.
