January 19, 2005 - (FOR WEDNESDAY 1/19 M.E.) If Governor Tim Pawlenty has his way, the city of Rochester could be in for a building boom. Pawlenty delivered his annual State of the State address from Rochester yesterday (TUESDAY) -- and outlined a list of projects for the city and the region. Chief among them would be a new, four-year university. Political observers say the attention on Rochester could be an attempt to shore up Republican support in what's long been considered GOP territory. Minnesota Public Radio's Michael Khoo reports.
