Apple Valley's Bodega 42 Serves Latin American Shoppers Who Once Drove Miles for Groceries

Inside a market on 152nd Street West in Apple Valley, shelves stocked with goods from Colombia, Venezuela and Ecuador sit alongside a tortilla shop turning out fresh corn and flour tortillas every day. Bodega 42 Fresh Market has grown into a one-stop destination for shoppers who once had to drive well outside their neighborhood to find the ingredients of home, and its owners say that mission has only gotten more important as food demand across Minnesota remains elevated.

5 Minnesota Enclosed Malls That Opened Before 1970 and Still Operate in 2026.

On October 8, 1956, Southdale Center opened in Edina, Minnesota. No shopping mall in the United States had been fully enclosed and climate-controlled before it. The Dayton family had hired the architect Victor Gruen, and his plan set two levels of stores around a garden court under a large skylight, with Dayton's anchoring one end and Donaldson's the opposite one.

The buyer of a Minneapolis skyscraper has skipped paying property taxes

The local company that bought the Ameriprise Financial Center skyscraper nearly two years ago for a shockingly low price of $6.25 million has missed both property tax payments this year, according to county data. Why it matters: This is another sign of distress for downtown Minneapolis' office market and helps explain why buildings are trading for so little. You can buy a 31-story tower for $6.25 million, but then you have to pay a property tax bill of $1.5 million, plus energy, maintenance and security costs. The intrigue: It's unclear why Minnetonka-based Onward Investors didn't make two $777,118 tax payments that were due in May and October. It also owes $155,438 in late fees, according to Hennepin County records as of Friday. The firm is current on its taxes for the nearby iconic Wells Fargo Center, which it bought around the same time. Onward did not respond to multiple requests for comment. What they're saying: The city said it wouldn't comment because there's an appeal filed by the landlord in Minnesota Tax Court. However, the city did not provide a case number when asked. Between the lines: It's easy to see why Onward is appealing the valuation. The city's 2026

St. Paul's 900-Ton Mansion Crawled Five Blocks to Dodge the Wrecking Ball

A 900-ton Victorian duplex once crept through downtown St. Paul at a crawling 20 feet per hour, lifted with hydraulic jacks and conveyed on wheeled dollies past onlookers, to escape a date with the wrecking ball. Twenty-five years later, the Armstrong-Quinlan House still stands in the Irvine Park neighborhood — though its path there, and the years of struggle that followed, make for one of the stranger chapters in the city's preservation history.
