This Historic Minnesota Restaurant Was Once A Stagecoach Stop Before Minnesota Even Became A State

A stone doorstep at one old Minnesota restaurant is worn down by more than a century of footsteps. That groove started forming when stagecoaches still rolled up outside. The first version was a tiny log hotel, just 16 by 24 feet. It opened in 1854, four years before Minnesota was even a state. Mail carriers and weary travelers stopped there on long trips west.

Northfield attorney faces possible 2nd suspension over eviction case

Referee Jon A. Maturi concluded in September that David Ludescher filed a frivolous eviction complaint and a subsequent frivolous motion for a new trial. However, Maturi determined that the filings were not malicious and that the misconduct was substantially less serious than violations that led to Ludescher’s previous suspension in 2023. Ludescher, a former Northfield city councilor and frequent voice in local political discussions, disputes the findings. The case began when a woman acquired a Faribault rental property whose previous owner had leased it without obtaining the required city rental license. The new owner retained Ludescher to evict two tenants, citing concerns about property damage, access to the home and potential civil or criminal penalties for continuing to rent without a license. Although the city of Faribault prohibits renting property without a license, its ordinance does not specify whether such a violation invalidates an existing lease.

St. Charles moves forward with South Fork housing development

With a shortage of available housing lots and growing concerns about affordability, the city of St. Charles is taking a more active role in residential development through its South Fork Community Development Initiative, a project officials hope will bring more than 120 housing units to the community. The city is preparing land in the South Fork neighborhood for a variety of potential housing options, including single-family homes, twinhomes, duplexes, townhomes and a possible apartment complex. The initiative is intended to make residential construction more attainable by having the city prepare the land and infrastructure before private builders and individual homeowners take over construction. The hope is for construction to begin in Spring 2027.
