The project of note is now known as the Maple View Flats but was part of the Big K Special Merit Project. (more…)


Update:

“Dear PoPville,

Last night my friend and I came to a hockey game and when security personnel saw Ukrainian flags, they told us Ukrainian flags are not permitted by Capital One Arena and wouldn’t let us in unless we get rid of the flags.
