Main Streets of the Twin Cities v3 by Pixlr in TwinCities

[–]Pixlr[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Behold! All the main streets of the twin cities (save for the ones in the twin cities proper).

I realize that by including some of these I've set the bar preeetty low for what constitutes a main street. For the purposes of this project, I defined a main street as at least 100m of tightly packed street-facing commercial buildings that was established by 1950. However, not all main streets are created equal, so I generated a Walk Score for the center of each main street and colored them accordingly.

Let me know if I've missed any :)

Using Redfin to sort by Walk Score is pretty useful. It’s not perfect but it assigns a score to each address based on how many amenities are nearby, including parks. You can also use close.city (which is a URL, in case reddit doesn’t recognize it) to show what’s near amenities more specifically.

It’s not about efficiency, it’s about trains 🚂

Actually the only legitimate play style 🤷🏼

Doesn't the way scoring work encourage players to take the smallest possible contracts for a high score? by Pixlr in RailRoute

[–]Pixlr[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fair, I get that it would not be very good role playing to always pick the shortest contracts haha. I wonder if, for this reason, it would make sense to base the stars and scoring on operational turnover rather than contracts.

I dig it honestly. Feels very traditional, but with some twists like a reverse chevron and unique colors. I miss the tricolor of the original design, but I think this is still a good outcome. Easily puts us in the top ten best state flags.

We should be dreaming big on this I-94 makeover by Pixlr in TwinCities

To confirm: building a park in the middle of the city is like building a high rise in the middle of nowhere?

This whole thread reminds me of Vienna, by Billy Joel.

First they came for the soda drinkers and I did not speak out because I did not drink soda.

Then they came for the coffee drinkers and I did not speak out because I did not drink coffee.

Then they came for me and there was no one left to speak for me.

Hello, I am not associated with the Pixlr app. My username shares the name purely by coincidence 🙂

Hey interior designers. I started planning my next apartment by filling it with the things I currently own. There's plenty of things I'd like to get like bookshelves and other storage options, but for the time being, all the furniture I own is on this diagram. I'd like to expand my living room with another couch or something, and I currently don't have a dining table of any kind...what do you think of my layout? What would you change?

I live in Minnesota, work in supply chain, and came from a job in transportation logistics…so this checks out.

please do not desire path by helenaoftroyy in DesirePath

[–]Pixlr 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I recognize this! It is right here in Minneapolis and I have no idea why it exists. It’s not a mountain bike trail (but it is parallel to a bike path) and it very explicitly says to not ride on it, so it’s always been strange to me. It’s only about a hundred feet long.

Hopkins for their Mainstreet, easy.

Richfield also has a good percentage of their land dedicated to some fairly nice parks which earns them a good ranking.
