As far as the proposed 6 story condo at Lagoon/Irving, I think there are plenty of run down buildings in that strip btwn Lagoon and Lake west of Lunds all the way to the lake. Those 3 houses across the street from Lunds are atrocious and there are those houses across Lake from the new Edgewater. I remember looking at renting one unit back when I first moved to Minneapolis in 1990 and thought that they want $800 a month for this piece of ****? There is plenty of room for improvement along that stretch and in Uptown in general. If the Uptown area actually improves I may be inticed to move back. Probably not until it gets some sort of decent alternative transportation though. The traffic in Uptown is crazy.
