Little Canada Rice Street Corridor

Resumen del informe: The City of Little Canada engaged ULI Minnesota Advisory Services for a Technical Assistance Panel (TAP) to provide recommendations regarding the best use for three city-owned parcels, while also offering guidance on placemaking and development in the surrounding areas. Key themes from stakeholder interviews and a community survey emphasized residents' desire for mixed-use development, a 'Town Center' destination, increased local activations, and a stronger city identity. Respondents also expressed a need for enhanced walkability and pedestrian safety within the city. The TAP, guided by principles of catalytic development, pedestrian connectivity, identity establishment, and economic support, focused on three city-owned sites.
