Saint Paul Winter Carnival. Light on winter this year but no shortage of mirth!

Fantastic to enjoy music from Switchgrass at the Como Park Conservatory tonight. Thanks to the band and Saint Paul Parks and Recreation!

Make time for the Experimental Art in the Eastern Bloc exhibit while it’s at the ⁦Walker Art Center⁩! walkerart.org/calendar/2023/…

A welcome update. Definitely feels like a less anxious vibe than 6 or 12 months ago.

With the stakes as high as they are for the whole community that this negotiation lead to timely resolution, the ⁦Saint Paul Public Schools⁩ and ⁦SPFE Local 28⁩ talks should absolutely be live streamed. startribune.com/st-paul-public…

Executive Director José A. Zayas Cabán, Principal Engineer of Toole Design Lucy Gibson, and Jon Commers with @Visible_City present the initial findings of the feasibility study of Twin Cities Boulevard to the #mnleg Transportation Committee. Results: A better future is possible.

A significant part of the “visible” in Visible City is revealing new opportunities in places that are very familiar to clients and their partners. The UrbanistAI toolbox is an outstanding complement to our work on this front!

I’m running Grandma's Marathon half marathon in Duluth in June and raising money to support work the Boys & Girls Club of the Northland does with kids and families. Donate, run a few miles with me, or both! secure.givelively.org/donate/boys-cl…

Thanks @KentErdahl for the conversations on this critical topic! I'm glad our resources at @Visible_City can help retool assets in commercial districts for the future.

Perfect day for a ride to the Saturday Mill City Market. Looking good, downtown Minneapolis!

There are a few places available in my #UMN urban studies colloquium this fall, titled "Public/Private Sector Interaction in the City." Project-based discussions of data, behavior, finance, governance! Please share with undergrads in your networks. schedulebuilder.umn.edu/explore/2024Fa…

Another great day made possible by the amazing crew at Twin Cities In Motion and so so many volunteers! Thank you all from one of the many ten-milers.

Just finished So We Read On by Maureen Corrigan, an expansive look at the how and why of Fitzgerald’s writing of the Great Gatsby, on the eve of its 100th birthday. Too much to rave about in a tweet! Also, behold the original cover art by Francis Cugat.

Breaking: Leader John Thune made a comment. Next one is anticipated in October. Or 2027. apnews.com/article/shutdo…

Right on, Ken Martin. Every district.

Worth the quick read of this article in the latest For All magazine from Minneapolis Fed. minneapolisfed.org/article/2024/h…

Senator Alex Padilla is a good man and principled public servant. The brazen and aggressive manhandling of Senator Padilla by the Trump administration is a sickening disgrace. Anyone who assaulted the Senator should be held accountable. No one is above the law.

If you’re a conservative or a libertarian, see you at the protests. apnews.com/article/alex-p…
