OPINION
RANDALL, Judge.
This is an appeal from an eminent domain proceeding. The only contested issue at trial was whether appellant, Burlington Northern Railroad (Burlington), received just compensation for a parcel of land condemned by the State in 1982 for use in extending Interstate Highway 35. The parcel is located in downtown Duluth.
In 1984, a panel of three court-appointed commissioners valued the parcel, approximately 32 acres, at $3,400,000. The State appealed the award to the district court as excessive. Burlington cross-appealed the award as insufficient.
