Initial Hudson redevelopment plans disappoint: Concepts included residential, hotel and banquet space
It looks like it will be a while yet before the former Hudson building in downtown Hastings is redeveloped. Last Thursday, the Hastings Economic Development and Redevelopment Authority, which owns the building, reviewed three redevelopment concept plans for the building, but none of them were particularly attractive to commissioners present. Only Pam Holzem, Ron Toppin and Anthony Alongi were at the meeting. Because there was no quorum, the meeting was held as a workshop and no formal action was taken.

Everyday Hero: Denise Kintz
Early one Monday morning, Tom Kintz and his two sons, Dob and John, were quite the spectacle in Hastings. They had a special delivery to make, and there was no way to fit their package in a vehicle. So, at about 7 a.m., the three picked up the handiwork of their mother and walked it across four lanes of traffic on Highway 61 and another three blocks to St. Elizabeth Ann Seton School. Their delivery? A car.

Flower-bombed: Hastings artist creates smiles with mobile flower displays
When he lived in Chicago, Hastings artist David Cook created sculptures that fit the city’s industrial nature. It was moody, haunting and even a little scary, he said. About four months ago, he started a new project that is vastly different. He made a collection of large, brightly colored flowers and temporarily installs them in various spots around the Twin Cities area. “I’ve been getting nothing but smiles,” he said.

Sledding memories: Discovery of toboggan prompts review of unique Hastings memories
These days, the options for sledding in Hastings are relatively few. There’s the government center, the middle school and Lions Park, to name a few. About 130 years ago, long before there were liability concerns and long before automobiles existed, the local sledding scene was much more impressive. A few enormous and well-orchestrated toboggan runs were located in Hastings, using the Second, Third and Fourth street hills, among others, to fly into downtown.
