	EXACT address is 1001 Marquette Ave S.; right chain (Hilton), wrong
	location so I have to correct my previous statements:

	1: Parking sucks so bad it blows.
	2: It's nowhere near the Mall of America.
	3: Bus service is pretty decent.
	4: There is a skyway system that is within close reach and should
	   get people to interesting places.
	5: Did I mention parking sucks? I guess I might not be able to make
	   a night social event, downtown is crowded with nightlife. B^(.

	With the above address you should be able to use mapquest and such
	to plot things out. You can use www.uswestdex.com to look up
	fine eaterys and such. I think there is a Green Mill downtown but
	I like the one on Rudolph(sp)? in St. Paul best too; better atmosphere
	than the newer Green Mill locations.
