  • Snowy commutes, tech boom, and a $14M mansion - your Minneapolis local news update

    Snowy commutes, tech boom, and a $14M mansion - your Minneapolis local news update
    2025/03/06
    Good morning, this is Minneapolis Local Pulse for March 6, 2025.

    We're waking up to a winter wonderland in Minneapolis today after yesterday's significant snowfall. The city declared a Snow Emergency last night, with parking restrictions in effect until Friday evening. Remember to move your vehicles according to the rules to avoid tickets and tows. Many roads are still slick, so give yourself extra time for the morning commute.

    Speaking of commutes, there's good news for tech workers in our city. A recent report shows Minneapolis is becoming a major tech hub, with job growth in cloud computing, cybersecurity, and AI. Companies like Bright Health are leading the charge, offering competitive salaries up to $180,000 for senior positions. The tech sector now contributes $31 billion annually to Minnesota's economy.

    In real estate news, an opulent mansion in northwestern Minnesota has hit the market for $14 million. While it's outside the city, it's generating buzz in local real estate circles. Here in Minneapolis, the average home price is holding steady at around $350,000.

    City Hall has been busy addressing the aftermath of the snowstorm. Mayor Johnson praised city workers for their round-the-clock efforts to clear streets. The City Council is set to discuss additional funding for snow removal equipment at next week's meeting.

    On the cultural front, Theater Mu's new play "Fifty Boxes of Earth" opens tonight at the Guthrie. It's an intriguing mix of Dracula, puppetry, and political commentary. Over at First Avenue, Lizzo is returning for an intimate show next week to promote her new album.

    In sports, the boys' hockey state tournament kicks off today at the Xcel Energy Center. Minneapolis South faces off against Edina in the opening round at 11 a.m.

    We've got some great community events coming up this weekend. The Bedrace for Bridging charity event is happening at Buck Hill on Saturday, raising funds for furniture and household goods for families in need. On Sunday, the Minneapolis Farmers Market is hosting a special winter pop-up at the Mill City Museum.

    In public safety news, police are investigating a series of car break-ins in the Uptown area. Residents are advised to remove valuables from their vehicles and report any suspicious activity.

    On a lighter note, we're happy to report that the Gay 90's bar is reopening today after being closed for nearly a year due to fire damage. It's a testament to the resilience of our LGBTQ+ community and a beloved Minneapolis institution.

    Looking ahead to the weekend, we're expecting temperatures to cool down, with highs in the mid-20s. Perfect weather for enjoying some outdoor winter activities or cozying up in one of our many excellent coffee shops.

    This has been Minneapolis Local Pulse. We'll see you tomorrow with more local updates.

  • "Crime, Jobs, and Community Resilience: Minneapolis Local Pulse"

    "Crime, Jobs, and Community Resilience: Minneapolis Local Pulse"
    2025/03/04
    Good morning, this is Minneapolis Local Pulse for March 4, 2025.

    We're starting off with some troubling news from the streets of Minneapolis. Yesterday, police discovered a stolen U-Haul containing drug paraphernalia and, shockingly, an infant. The child is now safe, but this incident has raised serious concerns about drug-related crime in our city.

    In political news, Minneapolis and St. Paul have joined San Francisco in suing President Trump over threats to withhold federal funds from cities that interfere with immigration enforcement. This legal battle highlights the ongoing tension between local and federal authorities on immigration policy.

    On a brighter note, one of the country's oldest gay bars is set to reopen today after being closed for nearly a year due to fire damage. This reopening is a testament to the resilience of our LGBTQ+ community and the support they've received from across the city.

    In the job market, we're seeing mixed signals. While Minneapolis-St. Paul boasts one of the lowest unemployment rates among major metro areas, recent data shows the Twin Cities lost about 5,000 jobs in 2024. This marks the first year of employment contraction since 2020, with office-using jobs taking the biggest hit.

    For those looking to buy a home, the market remains competitive. The median household income in Minneapolis is now $83,544, well above the national average, which is driving demand in desirable neighborhoods.

    In sports, local wrestler Landon Robideau is wrapping up his high school career on a high note. He's been undefeated since his lone loss as a ninth grader, showcasing the talent coming out of our high school athletics programs.

    Looking at the weather, we're in for a quiet Thursday before strong winds pick up on Friday. A weekend cooldown is expected, so plan your outdoor activities accordingly.

    For food lovers, Chef Adam Reitsma and his team have been busy prepping new menu items, including veggie spring rolls and a Swedish meatball sub. These culinary innovations keep our local food scene vibrant and exciting.

    In community news, Minnesotans made nearly 9 million trips to food shelves last year, according to a recent report. This underscores the ongoing need for community support and highlights the generosity of our residents.

    On a lighter note, despite it still being early March, some golf courses in Minnesota and western Wisconsin are already open thanks to unseasonably warm weather. It's a rare opportunity for golf enthusiasts to hit the links this early in the year.

    Today's crime report includes a conviction in a domestic abuse-related murder case from 2023. While it's a somber reminder of the challenges we face, it also demonstrates our justice system at work.

    Looking ahead, community activists from the Minnesota chapter of the Council on American-Islamic Relations will gather outside Target's downtown headquarters today. They're protesting the company's decision to roll back diversity, equity, and inclusion initiatives.

    2025/03/01
    Good morning, this is Minneapolis Local Pulse for March 1, 2025.

    We're waking up to a chilly but sunny Saturday here in Minneapolis. Bundle up if you're heading out early, as temperatures are hovering around freezing. We'll see a high of 45 degrees later today, perfect for outdoor activities.

    Breaking news this morning: The Minneapolis City Council has approved a controversial $15 minimum price for cigarette packs. This decision, aimed at reducing smoking rates, has sparked debate among local businesses and health advocates. The measure will take effect in 60 days.

    In job market news, the tech sector continues to boom. UnitedHealth Group announced plans to add 1,000 new tech positions in the Twin Cities over the next year, focusing on AI and cybersecurity roles. This comes as the company grapples with the aftermath of a major cyberattack that could cost up to $1.6 billion this year.

    On the real estate front, the median home price in Minneapolis has hit $375,000, up 5% from last year. The Uptown area is seeing particular growth, with several new luxury apartment complexes breaking ground along Lake Street.

    In cultural news, the Walker Art Center is kicking off its month-long celebration of local artists today. The "Minneapolis Masters" exhibit features works from over 50 Twin Cities-based creators, showcasing the vibrant arts scene in our city.

    Sports fans, mark your calendars. The Timberwolves are facing off against the Lakers tonight at Target Center. Tip-off is at 7 PM, and we're hearing tickets are still available.

    In education, Southwest High School's robotics team has qualified for the national championships after their impressive win at the state competition last weekend. Congratulations to these young innovators!

    Now for some community news. The annual "Clean Sweep Minneapolis" event is happening today. Volunteers will be gathering at parks across the city to pick up litter and prepare green spaces for spring. If you'd like to join, check-in starts at 9 AM at your nearest park.

    In public safety news, the Minneapolis Police Department is urging caution after a series of car break-ins in the Whittier neighborhood. They're reminding residents to lock their vehicles and not leave valuables in plain sight.

    On a lighter note, the Stone Arch Bridge will be lit up in purple tonight in honor of Prince's birthday. The Minneapolis native would have turned 67 today, and fans are expected to gather for an impromptu celebration near First Avenue.

    Looking ahead, don't forget that daylight saving time begins tomorrow. Remember to set your clocks forward an hour before bed tonight.
