TAP Report: Minneapolis Warehouse District
Go Have Fun and Play!
报告摘要：Once a vibrant center for commerce and warehousing goods, the Warehouse District in downtown Minneapolis is today an area of particular concern and interest for civic leaders. Historic buildings dot the landscape, providing ample space yet requiring significant investment to convert to modern uses. Surface parking lots, providing easy vehicular access across the district, interrupt the urban fabric and are often sites of concern for criminal activity. Community amenities, including theaters and sporting venues, surround the district, yet connections to and between these regional attractions are unclear and uninspired. Turning to the Urban Land Institute Minneapolis district council (ULI) and its technical assistance panel program, the City of Minneapolis (the city) and its Community Planning and Economic Development (CPED) and Public Works (PW) Departments asked ULI and its real estate industry member leaders to provide recommendations for catalyzing development across the Warehouse District (the district) and activating the district further.
