APA MN Redevelopment Tour of Highland Bridge in Saint Paul

Please join us on Friday, May 9th starting at 12:30 p.m. for a walking tour of an urban core redevelopment in Saint Paul’s Highland Bridge neighborhood.

On this exclusive tour, you will learn about the origins and vision of the area, the key players involved, and the planning and design decisions that led to implementation. Highland Bridge is a 135-acre master planned development along the Mississippi River on the former site of Ford Motor Companies’ Twin Cities Assembly Plant. After its closure in 2011, the City of Saint Paul and multiple partners spent a decade engaging with the community, studying environmental impacts, and approving a plan for the site’s redevelopment.

Mobile workshop participants will have the unique opportunity to see an active, large-scale construction site, and explore new urban parks, vertical mixed-use development, and high-density housing projects.

Meeting Location: the lobby at the Highland Park Library: 1974 Ford Pkwy, Saint Paul, MN 55116

Ending the walking tour with snacks and appetizers.
