Excerpt:

The Woodses and their architects, Michael J. Burns Architects, met with Sterling MBA to discuss the options for a collaborative/co-development arrangement. To the relief of the Woodses, Sterling MBA offered a positive response to the discussions involving the Woods' renovation plans. The Woodses hope to work in conjunction with Sterling's adjacent new redevelopment to the north of Ralph's.

Enter a rush of college students who head to Ralphs in droves for its continuous flow of edgy music and young culture: They want to save Ralph's, too! Also, don't forget another crowd that streams into Ralph's for those noontime burgers and fries.

The Fargo Moorhead Heritage Society formally requests that the city of Moorhead extend its deadline beyond Oct. 1 to allow time for a negotiation process between the Woods family, Michael J. Burns Architects and Sterling MBA. A cooperative agreement can be made to save a historic landmark that means so much to the citizens of Moorhead, Fargo and the myriad number of young people who head to Ralph's for a great night out.
