NEWS Allianz Field

ON APRIL 13TH MINNESOTA WILL JOIN A GROWING LIST OF US CITIES WITH SOCCER SPECIFIC STADIUMS. On that day, the brand new $200 million Allianz Filed will open its doors to the public as the Minnesota United Football Club hosts the New York Red Bulls.

Allianz Field will be the 17th soccer specific stadium in the US – A phrase coined to describe smaller stadiums (18,000 – 25,000 seats) whose primary function is to host soccer matches but can also be used for lacrosse, rugby and smaller concert events. It took close to two years to build and required 2,200 workers and 650,000 labor hours of on-site work.

As anyone who has travelled 94 between Minneapolis and St. Paul can attest, the new stadium is hard to miss. It is located in the heart of Midway and stands out immediately due to its translucent exterior that is made of polytetrafluoroethylene (better known as Teflon to the most of us!) that is wrapped over LED lighting. The LED lighting allows the team to change the exterior color of the stadium at a touch of a button.

On the inside, the stadium is made for soccer with all seats placed as close to the field as possible and then a canopy encircling it all to help amplify crowd noise. In addition to the seats there are 25 suites, 38 semi-private loge boxes and four club rooms available. There is also a distributed antenna system which will allow fans fast access to web-based services and video even when the stadium is at full capacity. It is also notable that the stadium is one of the greenest in the country. Public financing was used as part of the project to build out a stormwater system that will collect water from the roof and other surfaces to provide irrigation for the entire 35-acre development surrounding the stadium. Additionally, three acres of new public green space was built around the stadium to link it to University Avenue.

The hope in locating the stadium in this spot is that it will serve as a magnet to further develop the often-maligned Midway area. While it is early, there are already numerous developments either under discussion or moving along in the process.

The Midway Chamber of Commerce says one local developer is planning a soccer themed housing and retail complex called “The Pitch” across the street from the stadium. While another management company has bought up over six buildings on the 1500 block of University Avenue with the goal of turning it into an entertainment district.

Exciting redevelopment project anchored by a new HyVee supermarket and convenience store. 35,000 square feet available between TJMaxx/Homegoods & Planet Fitness in former Home Depot building. Two strip center spaces (6,000 square feet and 8,100 square feet) are also available, and a pad site opportunity up to 5,300 square feet.

In addition, an Indianapolis developer has proposed five stories of multi-family housing on the corner of Shields Avenue.

Lastly, locally owned Wellington Management is planning 156 apartments plus commercial space on the southwest corner of Snelling and Shields.

But despite all this excitement, the question needs to be asked, Is it sustainable? And will the stadium, whose season runs from April through September be enough to spur long term development and interest in the area the other six months of the year when the team is in the off season?

The answer will partly depend on the ultimate success of Major League Soccer (MLS). Despite the growing popularity of soccer in the United States, Major League Soccer has never made a profit since it began in 1996. However, Don Garber, the commissioner of MLS, believes that could change. With the continued growth of the league, and the World Cup coming to the US in 2026, Mr. Garber feels the league could achieve profitably in the next 3-5 years.

For his part, MN United Owner Bill McGuire thinks that development around the site will be sustainable. As he told students and staff at St. Thomas University recently, “The area before the stadium was built was ugly, had negative vibes and was visible to everybody as they drove by on our busiest freeway, or on our new shiny rapid transit line or in a bus or car as they drove up to the Great Minnesota Get-Together.”

Mr. McGuire went on to remark, “If we look at the trends for the future, what the Midway development is about- transit-oriented development, higher density living, green space and environmental sustainability, the notion of urban villages, entertainment districts and diversified communities, if we couple that with ways to enhance our community, we’re going to see other benefits, like a better tax base, more job opportunities and, in general, better day to day living.”

Time will tell if Mr. McGuire’s predictions prove true but with opening day at the stadium only weeks away, and excitement around the team and the area growing, things seem like they are off to a great start.

PETER BAROTTJOB TITLE: Vice President Property Management AREA OF FOCUS: Property Management YEAR JOINED MSCA: 2015

WHAT WAS YOUR FIRST JOB IN THIS INDUSTRY AND FOR HOW LONG?After graduating from college, I worked for three years coordinating store remodels for Dayton’s and Marshall Field’s throughout the Midwest.

WHAT KEEPS YOU IN THE BUSINESS? The variety of work. I never know what to expect when I walk into the office.

WHAT THINGS DO YOU NEED TO BE SUCCESSFUL IN THIS JOB, AND WHAT ARE THE DEAL KILLERS FOR YOU? To be successful, you need to hustle! Strong organizational skills are also a must. Simple follow-up often gets the deal done. Time and bureaucracy are deal killers. With the current state of flux in retailing, you must be nimble and willing to think outside the box.

WHAT IS THE MOST UNIQUE PROJECT/LEASE/PROPERTY THAT YOU EVER WORKED ON IN YOUR CAREER? Without a doubt Tamarack Village located in Woodbury has been the most unique. The shear size and the diverse tenant mix make it a very exciting and demanding center to lease and manage.

IF YOU ARE A SEASONED VETERAN, WHAT ADVICE WOULD YOU GIVE TO THOSE NEW IN THE INDUSTRY? Work hard, listen and learn from the senior people in this industry. Experience absolutely matters in this business.

WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE REAL ESTATE RELATED APP? Google. I can’t think of another app that has made my life easier or that I rely on more each day.

HOW DO YOU LIKE YOUR EGGS? Sunny-side-up.

WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE RESTAURANT? Murray’s. There is no better steak in the Twin Cities.

IF YOU COULD HAVE ONE SUPERPOWER, WHAT WOULD IT BE AND WHY? Time travel. The ability to see into the future would be most helpful!

Thanks Peter

LAUREN KESSLERJOB TITLE: Associate Broker AREA OF FOCUS: Retail YEAR JOINED MSCA: 2016

WHAT WAS YOUR FIRST JOB IN THIS INDUSTRY AND FOR HOW LONG?My first job in the retail commercial brokerage industry was at Colliers, I started in January of 2016, and am still here!

WHAT KEEPS YOU IN THE BUSINESS? The culture and flexibility of this industry is hard to beat. I love how every day is different. I get to meet new people every day, whether that is a new client, a new broker or a new prospect. I continue to learn something new each day, and I have heard that does not go away! Keeps me on my toes.

WHAT THINGS DO YOU NEED TO BE SUCCESSFUL IN THIS JOB, AND WHAT ARE THE DEAL KILLERS FOR YOU? Being able to communicate with clients, think off the cuff, and put in the hours needed to be successful to name a few. Staying on top of who the new tenants are in the market, the developers who are looking at new parcels, and changes in the industry are also items that you need to track on a daily basis. There is never a dull moment in this job, things are always changing. There is something that I can do every day to forward my career as a broker. If I had to stay in the office, stare at my computer screen and cold call all day every day, I don’t think I would last more than five minutes in this job! There is a lot of time on the phone, but the opportunity to get out of the office, meet clients on site or take them for a tour around the markets, go to CE events, and social hours are what keeps me sane.

WHAT IS YOUR MOTTO / PERSONAL MANTRA? “Life is a beautiful thing. It just keeps getting a little better every day.”

WHAT IS A UNIQUE SKILL THAT YOU HAVE? It is very easy for me to memorize lyrics of songs. It is a random skill and doesn’t apply to much… but I love listening to a variety of genres of music. Wish I could have applied this in school when I had to memorize speeches or math formulas, but I wasn’t so lucky.

WHAT HOBBY OUTSIDE OF WORK ARE YOU REALLY PASSIONATE ABOUT AND WHY? It’s more of a recreational activity, but I love paddle boarding. Any watersport really. I love being outside and enjoying the summer. I grew up with a cabin up north and is a large part about who I am. Many great memories growing up. Now that I am in real estate, I have been trying to pick up my golf game as well.

RISINGSTAR Power Plate Meals

“Fast, Fresh, Full of Flavor” is the catch phrase for one of the newest retailers to the Twin Cities. Power Plate Meals (PPM) has eight locations company-wide with retail locations in Eagan, and recently opened Lakeville, and Bloomington.

With today’s busy lifestyles, PPM’s mission is to provide customers with a healthy, ready to eat meal that is not only convenient and affordable but is packed full of flavor. An individual can either pick up a meal to go in store or place an order online to get shipped right to their home. PPM offers nutritious, healthy food options for both individuals and families that are easy to prepare and delicious to eat.

Meals rotate every two weeks with always something new to try. There really is something for everyone.

The company was started in North Dakota by Seth & Haylee Houkom. Seth is a fourth generation farmer and Haylee was a full time NICU Registered Nurse when they put this company together. They felt if they can create favorite foods in a healthy way and make them taste good, they can get the general public to enjoy them also.

Their square footage requirement is 900-1,400. They like being in locations known for higher education and income, heavily trafficked, convenient, and synergistic co-tenancy. They used Greenstone Construction Inc. out of Fargo, ND to build out their space. They are looking for 6 – 10 additional locations in the Twin Cities.

They are represented by Peter Dugan and Brett Johnson of CBRE.

PHILANTHROPIC EFFORTS

Cornerstone – MSCA’s 2019 Philanthropic Charity of Choice

At the MSCA April bowling event, we will be collecting donations for our current philanthropic partner, Cornerstone. Families who come to Cornerstone’s Emergency Shelter are in imminent danger of domestic violence and are seeking safety and resources. Many of these families come to Cornerstone with nothing, as they have had to flee suddenly. Cornerstone provides not just safe shelter, but also meets families’ basic needs, including personal care items. Once families have become safe and stabilized, Cornerstone helps with the transition to a new home, so they are always in need of cleaning products and other items to help get families started in their new lives.
