A little closer to Yoda maybe?

Yes, GSU has the nicest climbing facility in the country, and their old climbing wall that they traded in is in Minneapolis. (I helped make the brackets for it.) Their new wall:

Listened to it on a Walkman as a kid while harassing the family lawn on one of these, with the legs kicking out to match the drums:

Her security wanting to kill me in front of the Chicago Peninsula in 2011. She was tiny even in huge shoes--she almost ran into me before this, as she popped out a door onto the sidewalk:

'96 grad here -- congratulations! Judith Younger used to wear broomball shoes to school after walking her dog(s), I believe. Reach out if you have practical Qs. My eldest has an apt at 270 Hennepin b/t DT and the North Loop. Lots of activity and amenities; highly recommended.

It's just a sketch, but maybe cover a couple blocks? It would work best with some French flair, it seems.

A consistent visual -- and local! -- are Magnepan speakers out of White Bear Lake, which run $600 to $30,000 or so.

That is nice. You could get a similar vibe by bolting Bang & Olufsen to a wall and adding a bracket below for a B&O turntable. Probably would run $500 all-in today: $100-300 for system and speakers; $100-200 for turntable.
