It's about urban development issues in Fargo-Moorhead. I will be talking about NDSU athletics news in the future as well.

This is the site:

There are people at a popular Grand Forks blog that are throwing fits because of me. People at that blog were literally trying to start something with me!!;D

Unfortunately for them, my blog will have nothing to do with Grand Forks, or any piss contests with them. It will be all about urban development stories in the Fargo-Moorhead area.

As for the old A&W, it will be a Bremer Bank building. I heard somewhere that A&W will franchise out a space in the new Memorial Union food court, but I can't confirm that.

Nice work and a great topic! I bet a lot of 'SU folks are interested in urban design. Big fan of skyscrapers here - I like living in highrises (although blackouts aren't too much fun).

You've probably seen these before in Google Earth, but I thought it was kind of cool:

40°46'5.73"N *73°58'59.51"W (Time AOL going up)
40°45'59.76"N *73°59'1.87"W (Hearst Building - pre-construction, I think I snapped some photos of that when it was going up - they've got to update NYC)
40°45'42.29"N *73°59'10.34"W (site of my former humble apartment - from the photo, it looks like Escher designed it)

On a completely unrelated note: I guess in The Netherlands, employees have to have natural light in their workplace - makes a big difference. They've got some funky looking buildings here too - the ING deal is pretty wacky: http://www.larscapes.com/amsterdam/ing_house.jpg
