St. Anthony Green Streets

The St. Anthony Green Streets Project is a redesign and retrofit of roughly ten blocks of residential streets and two neighborhood parks within the St. Anthony neighborhood. Through the design process and implementation of this project, the design team and city representatives hope to establish a new resilient standard for neighborhood scale streets and parks that can be replicated across the region.
