Maple Grove hopes for grant for 82nd Avenue/Main Street project

At its Nov. 2 meeting, the Maple Grove City Council approved support of the city’s Local Road Improvement Program grant application for funding for the 82nd Avenue and Main Street Area Rehabilitation Project. In May 2025, the council initially approved improvements to Main Street between Lakeview Drive and Weaver Lake Road, Lakeview Drive and 82nd Avenue (near Life Time and the Maple Grove Library). These plans were paused after developments at the Maple Grove Community Center and a possible performing arts center area. A feasibility report was ordered in February. The plans for the area includes new bituminous roadways, roundabouts at Main Street and 82nd Avenue and Main Street and Lakeview Drive, walking paths along the roadways, and new landscaping. These improvements would help with future traffic flows from the Maple Grove Community Center’s expansion and the Maple Grove Performing Arts Center located in the road project area. Proposed construction costs for the project area estimated at $5.95 million. City staff is looking to apply for $1.5 million in MnDOT 2026 Local Road Improvement Program grant funds to help pay for the project. According to city staff, “The grant program provides funding assistance to local agencies for constructing or reconstructing

For new Brazilian steakhouse, Maple Grove location is a homecoming

Bullvino’s Brazilian Steakhouse will soon be opening its fourth location and occupying the former Golden Corral site in Maple Grove, at 13603 Grove Drive. The restaurant has other locations in St. Paul, Bloomington and Bolingbrook, Illinois. There are also plenty of Minnesota and Maple Grove connections. Blake Hagert, owner/partner with Bullvino’s, said the restaurant is a family-owned and locally-owned Brazilian steakhouse, or churrascaria, rooted in the gaucho tradition of southern Brazil. “Our founder, Marcio de Morais, was born in Rio Grande do Sul, the birthplace of gaucho culture, and opened our first restaurant in St. Paul in 2019 to bring that tradition to Minnesota," he said. “The name says what we're about. ‘Bull’ is for the premium cuts we hand select, and ‘Vinos’ is for the wine tradition of South America.” Dinner is churrasco style, the way it's done in Brazil. “Our gauchos fire roast up to 21 cuts over open flame, bring them to your table on the skewer and carve them right in front of you. That includes picanha, the signature cut of Brazilian churrasco,” Hagert said. He noted that each diner gets a two-sided medallion. One side will let the gauchos keep bringing food and the red

This Charming Steakhouse In Minnesota Is Worth The Drive From Anywhere In The State

Some restaurants earn their reputation quietly, one perfectly cooked steak at a time, and Lindey’s Prime Steak House in Arden Hills, Minnesota is exactly that kind of place.
