This weekend we celebrated the completion of new public artwork at the Hiawatha-Lake Underpass by Daniela Bianchini, Pablo Kalaka, Natchez Beaulieu and Greta McLain. This 5,200-square-foot mural is grounded in the Medicine Wheel, a symbol of Indigenous communities around the world.

Initial #MNUFC game story:

You could go a decade without seeing a game like that.
Takeaways: Minnesota United advance in MLS playoffs after surviving red card, 10-round shootout with Seattle
The Loons took a second-half lead playing with only 10 men, and goalkeeper Dayne St. Clair converted a penalty before getting help from the crossbar for a 7-6 shootout victory.

Just this year, Minnesota has ranked:

A top 10 state for safety.

A top 5 state to live in.

A top 3 state for jobs.

A top 3 state to retire.

The 2nd best state to raise a family.

The 2nd best state for children.

A bet against Minnesota is a bad bet.

I wrote about the should-be-illegal trend of fencing off sidewalks because poor people are nearby. www.minnpost.com/cityscape/20...
Using fencing to curb homelessness in the Twin Cities is an insult - MinnPost
Agencies and governments turn to fencing instead of actual solutions for problems related to people experiencing homelessness.

WOW! The Washington Post obtained the rest of the body cam footage showing that the drunk-driving ICE agent promised to check if the arresting officer's partner was Haitian. "I’m going to run some checks when I get back." He added that he would have him deported if "not legit."

@andrew-wiebe.bsky.social for IR: Loons Bongi breakaway pushed right when shooting by outstretched arm in back. You can educate us on whether “he got a shot off” means no PK in the rules.

The huge size of the Minneapolis #NoKings march is hard to depict because it's circling 20 blocks of the central downtown core. This is the front when the back was still over at US Bank stadium and hadn't started moving yet.

"No Kings" rallies are expected around the country and throughout Minnesota Saturday, with demonstrators voicing opposition to Trump administration policies. Locally, the largest “No Kings” protest is expected in downtown Minneapolis.

I wrote about whether people in the Twin Cities simply lack the culture and habit of walking to places. (I think we do.) Here are some tips from two avid pedestrians.
www.minnpost.com/cityscape/20...
Too many of us are missing the benefits of walking
Even in good weather in parts of the Twin Cities with nice sidewalks and close destinations, people aren't walking as much as they could.

Lane safety conversion & bike lane gap filled on Lowry Ave N!

Shout out to @mennos.bsky.social who pushed for this to get done this year, County staff who got on board, & City crews who installed. This 3-block paint job cost only $12k, but delivers big safety improvements.

ICE just blatantly violated the law and arrested sitting Chicago Alderperson Jessie Fuentes while seeking to illegally arrest a patient in a hospital. Fuck these fascists.

This week, the City launch automated enforcement of speed limits at five high-risk intersections as part of a traffic camera safety pilot program. The pilot is a key part of the City’s award-winning Vision Zero initiative to eliminate traffic deaths and severe injuries on Minneapolis streets.

Excited that people will finally see in concrete how our Public Works staff has been working to expand the envelope for roadway safety improvements.

Coming at the close of this construction season, we'll have some much-needed new medians and new crosswalk locations at high ped/car volume crossings.
Dear neighbor,

I want to thank you for your advocacy regarding changes to our traffic calming process. As a result, Municipal State Aid streets are now eligible for the Neighborhood Traffic Calming program. 1/

Traffic laws are now photo-enforced in the City of Mpls. Five traffic safety cameras were placed on accident-prone streets and will now issue tickets for speeding - $40 or $80 depending on the speed.

This is a step towards encouraging behavior change to slow down drivers and keep our city safe.🚦

I’m proud that my speed camera pilot program is now being implemented.

This will protect Minnesotans by reducing reckless driving and speeding.

These cameras will capture the license plates of speeding drivers and the city will mail a ticket to their home. So, drive carefully!
