UND92,96 Posted May 29, 2007 Share Posted May 29, 2007 Tavern United has opened in Canad Inn. You can read a local bloggers review of it: Grand Cities Dining I was in Tavern United last Friday, and I was pretty impressed with it. The beer was surprisingly cheap ($1.50 for a bottle). From what I saw of the hotel--which was really just the lobby/restaurant/water park area--it looks very nice. Despite not having done any sort of marketing yet, I was told the hotel was about 80% full for this past weekend. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smoggy Posted May 31, 2007 Share Posted May 31, 2007 Are there still plans to build the new movie theater at the site also? Not sure on that, but I believe East Side is getting one downtown. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WiSioux Posted May 31, 2007 Share Posted May 31, 2007 Not sure on that, but I believe East Side is getting one downtown. I believe they are building a big theather (14 screens?) in East Grand Forks.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Siouxmama Posted June 1, 2007 Share Posted June 1, 2007 I believe they are building a big theather (14 screens?) in East Grand Forks.... ...and there will be how many people in each theatre on any given night? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smoggy Posted June 4, 2007 Share Posted June 4, 2007 ...and there will be how many people in each theatre on any given night? Seeing as how it will be stadium seating and supposedly cheaper, I'd say more than whatever Carmike is pulling in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GeauxSioux Posted June 13, 2007 Share Posted June 13, 2007 Ledohowski feted for taking risks The Canad Inns mogul opted out of this year's Canadian Hotel Investment Conference in favour of minor elective surgery and -- in a move that blindsided the difficult-to-shock businessman -- was given the 2007 Industry Entrepreneur Award. Congratulations Mr. Ledohowski. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
star2city Posted July 5, 2007 Share Posted July 5, 2007 Stadium-hotel had ugly death but Ledohowski keeps building One wonders what improvements Ledohowski might have for the Alerus Center development down the round. Would he be involved with a College Hockey Hall of Fame? Sports, folk, or art festivals? ON the same day in April that Leo Ledohowski announced Canad Inns' ill-fated $520-million domed-stadium/hotel proposal for St. Boniface, the company also set the opening date of its $50-million hotel in Grand Forks, N.D. Though the stadium project that is dead in the water was 10 times larger than the Canad Inns Grand Forks hotel -- now open and the talk of the town -- the two projects characterize the evolution of Ledohowski as a risk-taking entrepreneur and corporate CEO. He and the family-owned business started buying suburban hotels in the late '70s and now Canad Inns dominates the Winnipeg suburban hotel market -- it owns seven with another on the way -- to an extent that may be unequalled in any other city in North America. And while many similar hotels contract out the challenging management of food and beverage operations, Canad Inns has created its own restaurant brand, Aalto's, and its string of bars like Tavern United and Tijuana Yacht Club have been the preferred party spot for Winnipeg nightclubbers for years. A month after the Winnipeg Blue Bombers turned down his domed stadium proposal in favour of a new stadium on the site of the existing one, Ledohowski did not hide the fact he was off-put by the manner in which the deal went down. But he didn't spend much time licking his wounds. Neither did he bask in the success of the recently completed Grand Forks hotel connected to the Alerus Center, even though it was a challenging project that opens up a whole range of new possibilities for the company stateside. For Ledohowski, it's on to the next projects. He's building a $25-million hotel at the Health Sciences Centre, planning the development of a hotel in Bismarck, N.D., and figuring out the redevelopment of the old Metropolitan Theatre on Donald Street into a bar/restaurant/rock 'n' roll museum. The fact that he's stuck with a $1-million investment in a 160-acre parcel of land in St. Boniface with nothing to develop on it, does not cause undue concern. "I'll think of something," he said recently. "It's not the biggest risk I have ever taken." Fellow Winnipeg hotelier Bob Sparrow calls Ledohowski the consummate entrepreneur. And as such, there is always a potential home run with every risk taken. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sioux_Yeah_Yeah Posted May 17, 2008 Share Posted May 17, 2008 If you haven't been to Canad yet, you should go try out one of the restaurants: 'l Bistro has great Italian/Mediterranean food, AALTOS is a nice cafe that also has the choice of a buffet, and Tavern United is a pretty cool sports pub to hang out at! You can also go to Playmakers to have a drink and play some blackjack, poker, etc... Parents can bring their kids to the Waterpark, and they can also play in the Arcade! It's a great place to go and have a good time! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
