66th Street is Richfield’s main street, and with a planned reconstruction of 3.5 miles in 2016-17, it has the power to transform this first-ring city. It also has an enormous influence on adjacent South Minneapolis: 66th Street is the longest east-west street south of Lake Street, as well as home to the only major bus line […]

Re-posted from minneapolize.com I have been thinking about the headline quote since I go the note that today marks the last day for public comment on the St. Paul Bike Plan.
