Project Summary
| Client: | I-35W Corridor Coalition (City of Blaine, Minnesota) & Design Center for American Urban Landscape, University of Minnesota (Minneapolis, Minnesota) |
| Type: | Regional Plan |
| Program: | Alternative land-use scenarios for a seven-city region | Implementation strategy for a Metro 2040 Regional Center |
| Status: | 2000 |
Location:
Twin Cities Region, Minnesota Increasing development and population pressure led seven suburban communities in the St. Paul-Minneapolis region to form the North Metro I-35W Corridor Coalition. The Coalition aims to address common concerns such as changing demographics, aging housing stock and shifting economic development patterns and plan the sub-region’s future.
Through a series of three workshops, potential nodes were identified and growth scenarios created using existing development prototypes from the Twin Cities. The results were analyzed and developed into three alternative land-use scenarios to accommodate the region’s projected growth to 2020. The ‘livable communities’ scenarios were to be a model for the Coalition’s 2003 joint comprehensive plan.
