The study area includes a number of distinct neighborhoods, businesses and government lands. <br /> The following is a summary of existing properties in the area by geographical location: <br /> Twin Cities Army Ammunition Plant(TCAAP): This is by far the single largest land <br /> use in the study area. The TCAAP site covers approximately 2,300 acres and extends <br /> from Highway 96 to County Road I and from Highway 10 to Lexington Avenue. The <br /> major accesses to the site are on Highway 96 at Snelling and Hamline Avenues and <br /> accesses off of Highway 10 and County Road H2. The site is anticipated to be <br /> redeveloped entirely within the next twenty years. Future uses include commercial, <br /> retail, government,recreation/open space and a variety of housing. <br /> Highway 10/96 Triangle: This group of properties is bound by Highway 10 on the east, <br /> Highway 96 on the south and Interstate 35W on the west. The properties include <br /> approximately six single family homes, Scherer Bros. Lumber Company, the Big Ten <br /> Supper Club and the Arden Manor Mobile Home Park. Current access to the <br /> neighborhood is from one entrance on Highway 96 into the mobile home park and one <br /> entrance on Highway 10 to a service road which parallels Highway 10. Scherer Bros. <br /> Lumber has a separate access onto Highway 10. The area is split by a Minnesota <br /> Commercial Rail Spur which crosses Highway 10 and enters the TCAAP site. <br /> Gateway Business District(GBD): This group of properties includes several existing <br /> businesses with plans for significant business development around the southern end of <br /> 111 Round Lake. The GBD is served by Gateway Boulevard(a cul de sac)only which <br /> connects to Highway 96. The alignment of the connection of Gateway Boulevard to <br /> Highway 96 will be modified later in 1998 to provide greater separation from the <br /> Interstate 35W access ramps. <br /> Round Lake Residences: This group of properties consists of residential units along Old <br /> Highway 10 between Interstate 694 and Highway 96. The properties are generally single <br /> family units fronting Old Highway 10 with some multi-family located off of short cul de <br /> sacs near the southeast shore of Round Lake. The neighborhood has access to the south <br /> and access to Highway 96 via Old Highway 10. <br /> North Heights Church Triangle: Two churches are situated in the southeast corner of <br /> the Highway 96 and Highway 10 intersection. North Heights church is a regional church <br /> drawing members from several miles away. The facility can accommodate over 2,500 <br /> people and therefor generates a fair amount of traffic on Sundays and other special <br /> occasions. The adjacent Ukrainian Orthodox church has a much smaller membership. <br /> Access is provided off of Highway 96 and Snelling Avenue. <br /> Arden Hills City Hall: The current city hall is located along the south side of Highway <br /> 96 just east of Keithson Drive. A new city hall is planned to be constructed on the north <br /> side of Highway 96 between Hamline Avenue and Lexington Avenue. Access to Arden <br /> Hills City Hall is directly off of Highway 96. <br /> • <br /> 3 <br />
