The redevelopment will boast an impressive central park facility which will act as the focal <br /> point of the development and a strong amenity for the whole St. Anthony community. <br /> Leading away from this will be a series of trails, sidewalks and connected open spaces <br /> ■ that will link the site internally and enhance connections with the surrounding neighbor- <br /> hoods. Sidewalk and trail development will also strengthen links with the new Hennepin <br /> . Parks Regional facility on the old Salvation Army site. <br /> The development will also directly contribute to the improvement of water quality in nearby <br /> Silver Lake. The park and open space system will be designed to function as storm water <br /> retention and filtration facilities to assure that run-off reaching the lake will add to, rather <br /> than detract from, the water quality of the lake. <br /> Commercial development will also be an important component of the new neighborhood. <br /> At full build out the development will have approximately the same amount of retail space <br /> ■ as is located on the site at present (excluding the mall), although it will be grouped more <br /> closely around the Cub store to provide a dynamic commercial hub. It is hoped that many <br /> of the existing shops and restaurants serving the neighborhood will relocate to the new <br /> development. Additional retail and services uses will be focused around those that serve <br /> the local neighborhood. There will also be ample opportunity for office development, both <br /> on the site in stand-alone buildings and in mixed-use facilities above neighborhood-serv- <br /> ing retail.The development will also be well served by multiple Metro Transit routes with <br /> shielded waiting facilities provided on-site. <br /> Northwes <br /> t Quadrant Redevelopment Plan St. Anthony Village Pap 4.3 <br />
