I host the Streets.mn Podcast, which is all about transportation and land use issues in Minnesota. Lots of stories about bikes, transit, and housing density to cover!

Haven't been there yet! I accidentally hear a lot about the Green Line extension, because we also have a Green Line extension under construction in the Twin Cities.
