View Scherer Bros Site Concept Plan

The MPRB is preparing to create a community engagement plan and developer solicitation process for the Scherer Bros Site Parcel 'D' development. Initial feedback on the proposed process from community stakeholders will be incorporated into a "Community Engagement Plan" and "Request for Letter of Interest" that will be used to select a private development team for the design, construction, operation and management of the Parcel ‘D’ portion of the former Scherer Bros site. Development of this site is intended as an activator for the future Hall’s Island Park and a way of connecting local businesses and organizations to the park and riverfront.

The Scherer Bros Site is located directly north of the Plymouth Avenue Bridge along the Northeast Minneapolis Riverfront. Parcel 'D' runs along the north and east side of the property.
