Nicollet Mall - 80 story tower proposal - Minneapolis

[Oak]

A prime parcel off Nicollet Mall has attracted proposals from four developers with transformative visions that include an 80-story tower that would loom over the rest of Minneapolis skyline.

The 80-story building would rise about 100 feet and 23 floors above Minnesota’s tallest building, the IDS Center.

Minneapolis-based Doran is proposing a 30-story residential building and a six-story Graves hotel with a skyway connection between the two.

The plan from United Properties, owned by the Pohlad family, includes a 36-story building with a Hilton hotel and 300 residential units.

Impressive. Very impressive...

They dropped the 80 story proposal. Not even remotely realistic financially.

Three proposals left 36-30 floors.

Meanwhile, we struggle to get a 15 and a 12 story development going.


Otherwise, in order of preference: #1, #2, #3.
