Breakfast with a Preservationist: Updating the Saint Anthony Falls Historic District Design Guidelines – Brian Schaffer, Minneapolis CPED

The City of Minneapolis is currently updating the Saint Anthony Falls Historic District Design Guidelines, which were adopted by the Minneapolis Heritage Preservation Commission in 1980. In the three decades since the existing design guidelines were created, the district has seen dramatic change. Access to and interaction with the falls and the river has evolved, infrastructure has been added, project plans have been developed and realized, and the understanding and knowledge of the historic resources in the district have increased. The update to the design guidelines takes a holistic approach toward the many features that make up the essential character of the district. Brian Schaffer, the project manager for the new design guidelines, will review and discuss highlights of the proposed guidelines.

The most recent public draft of the design guidelines can be found on the project website.

This event is free.
