On the civic front, construction season is officially underway. City hall is rolling out more than two hundred twenty-five million dollars’ worth of infrastructure improvements this year. We will see nearly ten miles of city streets resurfaced, more than eight hundred lead water lines replaced, and new bridges rebuilt along the Midtown Greenway. Mayor Jacob Frey says these noisy months ahead are vital for safer streets and cleaner water, even if traffic gets a little tougher. The city has launched a new online dashboard to help us all keep track of construction zones and detours, so be sure to check that before heading downtown or across Hennepin Avenue.
In real estate, the spring market is starting to buzz. Median home prices in Minneapolis remain just under four hundred thousand dollars, with modest increases in listings across North Loop and Uptown. The rental market is seeing a surge in available units, particularly in the Mill District, where several new mixed-use buildings are opening this week.
For jobs, new postings are up about five percent compared to last month, led by health care roles at Hennepin Healthcare and tech positions at startups along Washington Avenue. If you are in the market, now is a good time to check local boards.
In breaking news, city police responded last night to a reported armed robbery on East Lake Street near 30th Avenue South. Two suspects were apprehended after a brief chase, and no injuries were reported. The investigation is ongoing, but officers say there is no ongoing threat to the public. Meanwhile, police are increasing patrols near the University of Minnesota campus after a string of car break-ins this week.
Now to cultural happenings. The Twin Cities Auto Show wraps up its final day at the Minneapolis Convention Center, where car fans can peruse the latest models and classic rides until this evening. Tonight, the city will light up for music lovers as Kendrick Lamar and SZA share the stage at U.S. Bank Stadium for their Grand National Tour kickoff. If you are not heading to the concert, Falling Knife brewery in Northeast is hosting a Timberwolves playoff watch party as the Wolves take on the Lakers at seven thirty. Across town, B2B Night at the Skyway Theatre’s Loft brings local musicians together for a high-energy showcase. For a taste of global culture, Afrolituation at The Bazemnt Lounge starts at ten tonight, celebrating African music, food, and fashion into the early hours.
On a feel-good note, congrats to the Southwest High School robotics team, who just won top honors at the state competition this week, competing against schools from across Minnesota.
That is all for today’s Minneapolis Local Pulse. We will see you tomorrow with more local updates.
