The 1.2 million-square-foot project will include office space, 200,000 square feet of dining and retail, and a 45,000-square-foot food hall and market. Office amenities will include a rooftop terrace with views of the Minneapolis skyline, private lounge and library spaces, and a 10,000-square-foot, state-of-the-art health club.

Hennepin County District Judge Susan Burke granted 601W a temporary injunction to secure new financing, thereby stopping the foreclosure sale that had been set for Aug. 23. Jaime Fink, …
