    Hopefully by the time it's done, people will be working downtown again.

    According to Wikipedia it's planned to open in 2025.

    $2,800,000,000 could have expanded 169 and Cross Town with bus stations, parking garages, vendor outlets etc. This is a waste of time and taxpayer's money. I want my investment back.

      Literally everything you mentioned is also a waste, and the reason this is getting built. NIMBY.

    It’s going to be a lot of crime, they need to stop

    This project will only increase crime in Saint Louis Park. This light rail will transport criminals from the north and downtown.
    Compare demographics and crime stats. When that one demographic moves in, crime increases.

      do your research on redlining before saying some stupid shit about “demographics” and “crime stats” keyboard racist

      My neighborhood has a green line stop, and it's very quiet and crime free. Links to articles backing your claims??

      @@TheLIRRFrenchie... the green line is crime prone. Here’s the proof:

      That sound you just heard was the mic drop on wokeness and the reality that that one demographic is prone to crime. Facts aren’t racist.

      Well thank you for that Racist rant, lets go onto reality. First EVERYONE uses the light in the downtown, so yes you will have some drug users on the light rail, but its not an increase its just what was already there, and I think its better that they are riding the rail rather than driving a car under the influence. They cause no harm beyond annoyance on the rails, but behind the steering column can and probably will kill someone.
