The Saint Paul Condo Blog

It seems that just as soon as I post about something, it changes. 

First, a turn for the worse.  The light rail that was raised from the dead is now in jeopardy again.  This time from the University of Minnesota!  The U wants a route that is more costly and will likely get less ridership.  If this gets the nod, we will likely fail the smell test from the federal government when it comes time to collect the federal money.  Disappointing to say the least!

Next, a turn for the better??  I received an email from the developer of the Farmers Market Flats that said all hope might not be lost.  He is working with the City to still offer the building as a "For Sale" product.  It might include a lease to own option.  They are still returning earnest money from the original buyers because there is still too much up in the air.  As soon as news breaks, I'll post it!

I really should start adding cliffhangers to my posts, make it a little more like a soap opera...

Will the Rossmor get a new coffee shop?  Will River Park sell out this summer? Will the Penfield start construction this year?  Who is Dean Johnson?
