mpls: Nicollet Avenuee Freeway Overbuilding

I read somewhere the the city of Minneapolis was thinking about building an overpass/tunnel thingy over I-94 along Nicollet Avenue. It would connect the two sides of Eat Street, and allow buildings to be built over the freeway.

Does anyone know more about how/when this beautiful idea could be funded? Does anyone know how much such a thing would cost?

  1. Wait a minute ... when you talk about Boston, are you talking about "The Big Dig?"

    I have heard some horror stories about that.
