Join us on Wednesday evening, 1/11/23, for the final open opportunity to engage with City staff during this first phase of engagement on the future of the Former Kmart & New Nicollet Ave Redevelopment Project. Project team members and City staff have been out in the community the past several months talking with neighbors, small business owners, students, and many other stakeholders; if you have not yet shared your ideas and experience, we need to hear from you!

Join us in person at MCAD or over Zoom to learn more about the project and overall timeline and to discuss the ways in which you believe this major opportunity can help us achieve a safe and healthy community that truly benefits those living and working here. Free parking is available in MCAD’s east lot off 26th St. Walking encouraged!

For a deeper history of the site and surrounding community context, check out the City of Minneapolis’ Story Map. Stay tuned to the City’s project page for updates and to sign up for project-specific emails.

Also on the agenda this Wednesday is a check-in with Ward 10 Councilmember Aisha Chughtai. She’ll be doing a brief overview of her work in 2022, items in the City’s 2023-2024 budget likely to have a specific impact on Whittier, and what she expects to focus on in 2023.

Hope to see you there!
