I have to credit my husband with this idea.

We were (once again) talking how much we loved St. Paul and he suggested we pick an area and try something new from there each week.

Given that I already spend a lot of time at St. Kate’s, we opted for the area around Macalester College instead.

Being the marketer, I’ve christened this adventure “The One Mile Project.”

Here’s our area, it’s not exactly a mile and not at all circular.

Google Maps doesn’t show a scale and Bing lists hardly any restaurants. Maybe business are not “claiming their space.”
