From the North Loop in Minneapolis all the way down to Shakopee, businesses across Minnesota are growing and expanding. Among some of the recent and notable moves are Marcus Theaters Corporation, Warby Parker and Kit and Ace.

Southbridge Crossing has submitted plans to build a 54,000 square foot, 10-screen movie theater at the Shakopee shopping center, operated by Marcus Theatres Corporation of Milwaukee.
