A local burger chain is tapping into the Westminster market.
Tap & Burger, owned by Juan Padro of Culinary Creative restaurant group, plans to open a new 4,000-square-foot location at 8810 Westminster Blvd. later this year.
“A lot of people are moving to Westminster, and I think we’re going to see a lot more of that as housing becomes more expensive in Denver and pushes people out to the suburbs,” Padro said. “Westminster’s becoming attractive because of the train, and they’re building this new downtown, which already has Alamo Drafthouse there and will include Tattered Cover.”
Sherman Associates recently announced that Chris Sherman would take over as president.
Sherman will guide the Minneapolis-based company’s leadership team as well as the direction and performance of their assets. In his first year as president, he plans to lead the company through expansions into new markets and has around $400 million in development planned making 2021 “the “biggest year” yet in terms of development for the company, Sherman said.
He’s the son of George Sherman, the company’s founder and current CEO. Chris Sherman first joined Sherman Associates when he was a teenager and later joined as a full-time employee after graduating college.
With major funding in hand, a project that will provide housing and support services for people in need is teed up for a possible 2021 construction start at the Highland Bridge redevelopment site in St. Paul.
Emma Norton, a nonprofit provider of housing and support services for women and families who have been homeless, is nearing construction thanks to an $18 million funding allocation announced last week by the Minnesota Housing Finance Agency.
The project will create 60 homes for women and children and office space for Emma Norton, said Tonya Brownlow, the organization’s executive director. At present, Emma Norton operates a 50-unit building near downtown St. Paul and a townhome site in Maplewood.
