Dayton’s Project in downtown Minneapolis faces foreclosure.
Developer 601W Cos., which turned the landmark department store into office space, owes $220 million to lender Fortress Investment Group.
Troubles surrounding the redevelopment of the former department store date back to 2020, when the $350 million project was set to open 1.2 million square feet of office and retail space just as the pandemic prompted a widespread shift to remote work.
Six years later, much of the property’s office space remains empty and unfinished. Plans for a food hall curated by celebrity chef Andrew Zimmern were canceled, leaving massive retail vacancies on the ground floor and in the skyway, where a lone coffee shop operates.
The Dayton’s Project continues to operate “at a significant loss,” according to the receiver’s February report.
Fortress’ attorney noted the firm has spent millions of dollars to fund the project since 601W defaulted. The lender advanced at least $18 million to cover operating costs and tenant improvements since the property went into receivership, according to reports filed with the court.

Federal jury convicts Minneapolis man connected to gang-related shootings of illegally possessing machine gun
Amiir Mawlid Ali was initially released from custody without being charged after Hennepin County Attorney Mary Moriarty deferred a charging decision, stating there wasn’t enough evidence to charge him.
This is the moment an invader who entered on a dinghy allegedly set out to carry out a knife terror attack on London's Israeli embassy after his asylum claim was rejected.
Abdullah Albadri was captured by police jumping on the embassy fence with two knives and a martyrdom note.

Email fake "reporter" bill.lukitsch@startribune.com and ask him why he purposely misstated the name of the Wellness Collaborative (as listed in the complaint) as the Wellness Collective in his birdcage liner report.
This is unbelievable and a gross fiduciary failure in reporting.
Well, well, well... what the birdcage liner and other #MNmedia won't tell you is that Nekima Levy Armstrong's husband, Marques Armstrong is a deacon at Zion Baptist church, now being sued for misuse of taxpayer funds.

This clown Marques Armstrong is seriously sitting here whining about how tough his life is while flashing his $4-5k watch in your face.

Oh, @AGEllison helped Zion Baptist church raise money and Reg Chapman from the Geriatric Neighbor (uNbiAsEd #MNmedia) helped him do it. Of course a helping hand from @SenatorChampion, with grifter Spike Moss sidled up next to all of them. 🙄
🚨JUST IN: The Michigan man charged with manslaughter for fatally shooting one of the “teens” he caught breaking into his garage has been bound over for trial
This is INSANE... his property had been broken into twice before this incident, and police IGNORED HIM AND TOLD HIM TO GET BETTER SECURITY
Now Judge Kelly Kostin said Dayton Knapton, 24, put himself in the situation despite prior break-ins at his property
She said his self-defense argument “becomes more difficult” after reviewing security video
Knapton is charged with manslaughter, assault with intent to murder, and weapons offenses after a shooting that killed a 17-year-old and injured another
Police say he saw several people entering his garage on camera, went outside, and opened fire as they were leaving
The garage had been broken into at least twice before, and Knapton had been told after the second break-in to “beef up” his security
“They don’t do much… they do the same thing every down. When I got the ball I knew what was going to happen”
Mmmmmk. He had 67 passing yards before leaving the game with an injury.
Amiir Mawlid Ali, 19, has been convicted by a federal jury on machine gun possession while on his way to the Edina High School graduation last year, after Mary Moriarty refused to charge the case.
After Moriarty declined to charge, Ali was arrested two days later during a shootout at Burnsville HS's graduation.

Ilhan Omar, caught in the Minnesota welfare fraud scandal, claims she is not a millionaire and there were "major accounting errors" in her public disclosure filing
Adorable. We also, saw everything they were doing, on every single snap… It’s just that we exploited those cues. And didn’t get frozen and crushed by them.
