The Saint Paul Condo Blog

Now this is what is fun about living in Downtown!  Mears Park is a beehive of activity with the Nature's Valley Grand Prix stage one racing around it. I took some great photos and a really cool video.  I didn't stand in this location long, even though I was protected (ha!) by a hay bail, I didn't want to see how well it would hold if a biker whizzing by at 30mph crashed into it.  I bumped into a lot of residents from River Park Lofts and I could tell that they also enjoyed the extra activity from the race.  Lately, Mears Park has been the hot bed of activity.  Between McNally Smith's lunch time concerts, Music in Mears every Thursday Night through the summer, and this race, it's been a huge increase of fun activities!!

I really feel that Downtown, even though the market is down, that it's about to bloom.  There is so much happening that it's only a matter of time before Downtown really sees the benefit of true urban living.
