K-Mart Development and Nicollet Reopening
The landscape at the intersection of Lake and Nicollet will look very different 10 years from now than it does today. The City of Minneapolis has acquired the 10 acre K-Mart site in the Whittier/Lyndale neighborhoods with the intention of reopening Nicollet Avenue and developing the surrounding area. In the coming years, there will be significant interest in this area from potential developers.
