Seems Blaine posts have either been scattered or under the general Suburb thread.

So ...

A “housing hub” is rising at the Lexington and 109 intersection.

All the development off of the 65 Corridor has created a mess out of the highway. They built it up and the highway capacity couldn't keep up. I don't know if there is a good solution.

Blaine reveals plans for major new entertainment district near National Sports Center

https://www.startribune.com/blaine-reve ... 600362435/

Wow! This sounds like a huge development.
A development team led by Elevage and Bader plans to build a 3,500-seat outdoor stadium; a field house with pickleball courts and a restaurant; an attraction similar to Top Golf in Brooklyn Center; two hotels, and a medical office on land north of the National Sports Center, where the city has been acquiring blighted industrial buildings for nearly a decade.

Nearly 400 market-rate apartments, public gathering areas and green space will be included in the parcel stretching from 105th Avenue NE. on the south, 109th Avenue NE. on the north and along portions of Nassau Street and Radisson Road.

Thorvig said no city tax dollars will go toward the project. The city could use tax abatement, tax increment financing or sell bonds to cover its portion
