The Met Council says it tracks proposed, under construction or completed developments along the existing Green and Blue lines and their proposed extensions.
"In the past year alone, we have seen an increase of $1.6 billion for a total of $8.4 billion in development along LRT lines," Met Council Chair Alene Tchourumoff said, according to the release. "Businesses and developers choose proximity to light rail because they know that residents and workers of all ages are increasingly demanding access to transit – whether for housing, work, school, or entertainment."
