The proposed $1.5 billion Bridges of Saint Paul residential, retail, and entertainment complex on St. Paul's west side river flats would be the first of its kind in the Twin Cities. And it looks absolutely breathtaking.
The project would be completed over ten years by a developer who will not take no for an answer.
The problem, some say, is that the complex, which includes 30-story condominiums, a multiplex theatre, and dozens of restaurants and shops, would both suck life away from downtown St. Paul and be an unwelcome distraction from the beauty of the river flats.
I think it's a much-needed revitalization for a city that most view as a "nice place to sleep in." Go check out the proposal at The Bridges of Saint Paul. Any thoughts?
