West St. Paul is a first-ring suburb of 20,000 people in a metro area of more than 3 million. The local news media doesn’t pay much attention to us. They didn’t report that we became the sixth city in Minnesota to pass a conversion therapy ban, nor did they cover our relaxed chicken ordinance.
It’s hard to know what’s going on.

Which is why it’s so helpful to have answers:
- Orange cones on Robert Street? That’s for the River-to-River Greenway tunnel.
- Construction at Robert and Annapolis? That’s the North Gateway apartment project.
- What’s coming in front of Cub? Starbucks, Chase, and a yet-to-be-filled retail space.
- What’s the latest with K-mart? Dominium apartment proposal, next step is the TIF approval on August 31.
- What’s proposed at Robert and Wentworth? Market-rate apartments and retail (sorry, the brew pub fell through).
- Who’s running for office? Check out our 2020 election coverage.
