February 17, 2016, Wednesday - Hennepin Avenue Public Meeting #1 at Central Library

Time: 4:00pm - 6:30pm

Location: Central Library, 300 Nicollet Mall

Hennepin Avenue Public Meeting #1

Hosted by the City of Minneapolis

The City is planning to reconstruct Hennepin Avenue downtown from Washington Avenue and 12th Street in 2020. This is the first community meeting to help shape the vision for what the new Hennepin will look like. Staff will present at 4pm and 5pm and be available for feedback.

We hope you will attend! Hennepin is a critical street with lots of possibilities. But those possibilities will only come through if people come and say the want to see improvements.

Protected bike lanes, improved walking safety, more space for community gatherings, dedicated bus lanes, and less auto focus are all things that can make Hennepin more welcoming, comfortable, and lovable. Speak up for them at the meeting and with your Council Member.
