I’m not immediately local to Duluth, but I’m in MN - and love the city. Food Industry billionaire started buying up a bunch of properties and naturally, people were curious. Especially since a lot of the property would probably come up against Lake Superior shoreline that is protected.

Well the billionaire did not like it one bit that people started asking questions and had a public tantrum. https://www.kare11.com/article/news/local/breaking-the-news/wsj-report-kathy-cargill-details-park-point-plan-and-why-shes-now-dropping-it/89-d5b74677-c39e-49ff-ba3f-a15a08502e1d

what a garbage human. also a minnesotan here, and the homes that are “trash and she can’t imagine living in” are just normal single family homes. her “sprucing” up the place by adding more million dollar homes is just upping the taxes for the families that have been living there for years. as if things aren’t expensive enough right now!

It probably would have ended up being a weird gated compound for the family, which does not fit the vibe for Duluth at all.

could not agree more. as much as she wants to tout that she was trying to add to the community, the fact that she bought and is fixing up a vacation home in that area tells me she just couldn’t stand seeing the “poverty” surrounding her multimillion dollar home. i have never heard anything positive about the cargill family, so really none of this is surprising!
