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

Cozy new massage parlor opens in Robbinsdale

Heaven and Home Massage LLC will soon begin business at the cozy house-turned-office space at 3826 W. Broadway in Robbinsdale. Sirius Nefertiti, business owner, applied for a permit through the city, which was approved on Nov. 4. A few weeks prior to the 3-0 vote from the City Council, the city's planning commission held a public hearing and recommended approval. Staff shared that the business aligns with the comprehensive plan and does not threaten to deteriorate the neighborhood. There's no perceived risk of the spa causing odors, dust, flies, vermin, smoke, gas, noise or vibration, or impose hazards to life or property in the neighborhood. Nefertiti asked the council if it had any questions or concerns. They did not. “Massage is a great way for people to release and relax … thank you for bringing your skill set to our community,” Council Member Raymond Blackledge said. Heaven and Home Massage LLC offers couples massage, prenatal massage, Swedish massage and deep tissue massage. Nefertiti explained to the Sun Post that her business has been operating for the past eight years as a mobile massage parlor. Growing up, Nefertiti said her mom would often ask her for massages, and although she offered
