In Minneapolis, we love our Somali neighbors, and we will always stand up for them. Make sure to stop by 24 Somali Mall and other locally owned Somali businesses and show them some love right now.

Want to keep rents down? Keep building homes. Proud to break ground on 931 Marshall, where two single-family homes are becoming 89 new homes in NE Minneapolis, with seven affordable units at 60% AMI. More supply means more options, more competition, and less pressure on rents.

We started Indigenous Peoples’ Day at Bde Maka Ska with this morning’s sunrise ceremony. Minneapolis is stronger because of our Indigenous communities, their leadership, culture, and deep connection to this land. Indigenous history is Minneapolis history.

We kicked off Minneapolis Amplified at Uncle Franky’s, and the place was packed. The idea is simple: bring live music into neighborhood businesses, get more people through the door, and give people another reason to explore Minneapolis. And we’re just getting started.

I’m proud to nominate Bill Peterson as the next Chief of the Minneapolis Police Department. Bill has served this city for 30 years, led through some of our toughest moments, and earned trust across MPD and our community. He knows this city. He’s ready to lead.

La Perla is a Minneapolis staple, and we’re so proud to have them here. Brothers Jose and Miguel grew up in our city and have been part of their family business their whole lives. Next time you’re grabbing chips or tortillas, make sure they’re La Perla!

Operation Metro Surge made this a tough year for our Latino-owned businesses, and many are still working to recover. This 3rd Annual Latino Business Week, let's help them bounce back. Grab a meal, pick up a gift, try somewhere new, and show them Minneapolis has their backs.

I fell in love with Minneapolis during the Twin Cities Marathon, and it was a full-circle moment to send the runners off this morning. Not a more beautiful place in America for a run than Minneapolis.

Kitchen upgrade, new porch, or new room? 4 days. Roofing upgrades? 1 day. Replacing a toilet or leaky sink? Instantaneous. We’re cutting red tape and speeding up permits to make it easier to build, improve your home, open a business, and get things done.

Looks like 5 is our lucky number! Congratulations to Olivia Miles for winning ROTY and Cheryl Reeve for winning COTY - her 5th award. It’s incredibly exciting to have this level of talent in Minneapolis. Looking forward to the Lynx winning their 5th championship this year! 🏆

I might be biased, but I think our Public Works department has the best snow removal team in the entire state of Minnesota. Grateful for each and every one of these drivers who keep Minneapolis streets safe and running.

17 new Minneapolis firefighters are ready to serve our city. These cadets earned the badge after months of hard work, training, and proving they have what it takes to answer the call when Minneapolis needs them most. We are so proud to have them here.

CAVA chose Minneapolis for its first Minnesota storefront and we couldn’t be more proud to be their 500th overall store. I stopped by this week to welcome the team and check out their new location near the University of Minnesota. Make sure to go check it out!

Yesterday, 30 new officers took the oath to serve Minneapolis. They’re part of one of MPD’s largest and most diverse graduating classes in recent history. That’s real momentum as we continue strengthening public safety and investing in the people who serve our city.

Nothing brings Minneapolis together quite like a little friendly competition over ribs. Battle of the Badges & the People’s BBQ brought the heat to North Commons, with MFD taking home the rib cook-off crown. Bragging rights are yours, firefighters. At least until next year!

My jump shot might not be ready for Target Center, but Unrivaled is. On January 24, some of the best basketball players in the world are coming to Minneapolis, led in part by our own Napheesa Collier, who co-founded the league. See you downtown!

Health care should be a human right. That’s why, one year ago, we launched our mobile medical unit to bring care directly to people who need it most. Since then, we’ve helped thousands across Minneapolis. Let’s keep building on that progress.

Happy Alabama Shakes Day! This morning, I stopped by The Current to reflect on the first time I saw them perform at Hall’s Island in 2015. They were magnetic, and I’ve been a fan since. Tonight, they kick off a back-to-back show at Surly Field. See you there, and get ready to jam out.

Today marks one year since our city experienced an unimaginable tragedy at Annunciation Church and School.
Today marks one year since our city experienced an unimaginable tragedy at Annunciation Church and School. We celebrate the lives of Harper Moyski and Fletcher Merkel and hold them close to our hearts, as well as those whose lives were forever changed that day.

In one of the most difficult moments our city has ever experienced, we showed up for one another. People across our city cooked meals for affected families, held vigils, watched children, cared for pets, tended flowers, marched for change, prayed, and donated to support those impacted. We have been united in grief, but also in action.

Let’s carry that spirit forward by urging state leaders to pass gun violence prevention measures that will keep our communities safe in the next legislative session.

And let’s keep showing up. For these families, for each other, and for every child who deserves to be safe in their school and their place of worship.

The Consortium Building is now 97% leased, with more than 8,000 square feet of new tenants added in just the last year. From The Fine Line to Bullseye Media to Element Commercial Real Estate, businesses are continuing to bet on the Warehouse District, and we’re building on that momentum.
