A. PURPIDSE A D GEN RAL DESCRIPTION
,
Beginning�with th Downt wn Urban Renewal Project Area—Minn. R-20, the H using and
kedevelopment A thority of the City of Saint Paul has developed a skyway sys m in
downtown�Saint P ul.
i
As used he�rein, t term ' kyway system" is inclusive and encompasses the foll wing:
tl) eoncoukse corr dors, (2 node points in the concourse corridors, including, wh re feasible,
one major�node c tral to each block, generally at the point where several conc urse corridors
intersect, I�3) brid s spann�ng streets, (4) certain vertical access facilities connn cting the
concourse �corrido s to pu lic streets or other public property. The primary pur ose of this
skyway sy�tem is o diver pedestrians from the minimal width street level side alks, enabling
pedestrianitraffic o move in an enclosed environment protected from adverse eather
ana vehicu�ar traf ic. The skyway system has significantly reduced pedestrian- hicle conflicts
at street 1$vel, p ticularl during periods of peak traffic, thereby permitting a moother
flow of vet�icular affic a d greater safety for the pedestrian.
_
Another imlportant benefit of the skyway system is the opportunity afforded dev Iopers `
to provide �hop an office pace abutting the concourse. Ir� the use of such shop space,
the pubiic �ill be nhinder d by adverse weather conditions and traffic, thereby romoting
the desirabflity of hoppin and doing business in the connected buildings and co tributing '
to the econpmic st ength o Downtown Saint Paul. The skyway system, through he efforts
of the deve7opers, lso ma contain sculpture, water displays, artwork, and other elements
contributin� to the aesthet c and cultura! enrichment of the citizens of the City, thereby
becoming alfocus o activit in the downtown area. The general location of the kyway
system, inc�uding c ncours corridors, nodes, vertical access facilities and bridg s are
shown on th�e attac ed map
B. DEVEL PN1EN PRE,iv1I ES AND CONSIDERATIONS
Incorporatic�n of th public kyway system into private development and building w-nership
presents sort�e uniq e impli ations for both the public, owners, and redevelopers. With
recognition pf the blic an private interests involved in the skyway system, cer ain
premises haye been stablis ed relating to the system, and these premises are ba ic to
the regulatibns and evelop ent criteria established for the skyway system as set forth
in succeeain� secti s. The following premises apply to the entire skyway system even
though porti�ns of t e syste may be built by private building owners or develope s:
� .
� . ���
� -2- . . , .
1. The skyway system will be entirely enclosed and capable of being heated and cooled
to a temperature comparable to that maintained in office and retail areas. The term
"enclosed" shall mean protected from the weather, though the area of the skyway system
� need not necessarily be confined by its own walls. The concourse corridors and bridges
will be constructed at a standard width of 12'0", with a larger area to be developed at
nodal points. Those segments passing through existing improvements to remain will also
be at a standard width of 12'0", except where in the judgment of the City, physical limitations
of existing buildin�s, such as column spacing, fixed vertical element locations, window
opening, etc., render achievement of a 12'0" width impractical, or would constitute an
undue hardship to the owner. In such instances, a lesser width may be allowed.
2. The success, that is the ciegree of utilization of the skyway system, will be directly
related to the convenience anc; comfort it affords pedestrians in the downtown.
3. Any and all public expenditures for the skyway system must be limited only to those
improvements that are of public benefit. While adjacent buildings may derive peripheral
benefit from a public skyway abutting their properties, no segment of the skyway system
or its facilities that are of primary benefit to private interests can be constructed with ,,,
public monies. The City shall reserve to itself the sole and final determination as to what
improvements are of public benefit.
4. The sicyway system must have a design identity of its own, aistinguishing it from other
areas v.•ith public access within buildings as an aid to citizens in finding their way throughout
the system. Further, where public funcis are expended for the skyway system, it must
be possible to readily identify those areas publicly provided so that the citizens are cognizant
of their right to use such areas. The system must possess directional clarity and be accessible,
identifiable and continuous.
5. The skyway system must functionally and visually help to unify the downtown. �It should
be urban in character and should provide a variety of special experiences; it sho�ld not
be of monolithic design throughout its length. The skyway system should possess a yariety
of floor to ceiling heights and abut spaces of varying design and activities. Nevertheless,
it must still possess enough common elements to provide the directional clarity, continuity
and identity required.
.

C. SKY AY S STEM E EMENTS DEFINED
The skyv�ay syst m cons sts of five elements:
.
l. Concourse C rridors Concourse corridors will run through a block from b ilding face
to buildir�g face onnecti g to a skyway bridge. The primary public purpose of such concourse
corridors�is the comm dation of pedestrian iravel from point to point, and a such, a
standard �width o 12'0" i established for such elements.
-
2. Nodes�I- Node are the points of intersection of several concourse corridors nd/or
the locatibn of a ertical access facility. At such points, pedestrian traffic is "kely to .
be heavie� and m ving in arying directions, directional decisions are made, an other
activities �may be occurri g. Such nodes must clearly possess a design identity nd character
separatin� them f om abu ting private areas, and must be primarily oriented to the public
purpose of� accom odatin pedestrian travel in the skyway system, including or entation,
direction �hanges and co gregation or vertical movement to street level. The ize and
configurat�on of t e node ill be dependent upon the number of concourse corri ors intersecting
its locatiorh within the do ntown and the overall skyway system, and the amoun and nature
of anticip�ted ped strian ctivity within the node. The node must be large eno gh to
accommod�te anti ipated edestrian activity and to constitute a special area of importance
within the bverall kyway ystem. Therefore, a wider than 12-foot standard con ourse
area will b� requir d, whe possible, at one major node in each block and may necessary
at other noldes. �e ondary nodes rnay also occur in some instances, especially at points
of vertical �access o the st eet. Where appropriate, such areas shall also have a width
wider than �the nor al 12 f et appropciate for concourse corridors.
3. Bridgesl- I3ridg s gener !ly span streets and sidewalks between property line and perform
essentially �he sarn public function as concourse corridors; therefore, the bridge will be
built with alistanda clear idth of 12'0". Also, the City of Saint Paul currently equires
a minirnum bridge eight cl arance of 17'4" at the center of the street which it s ans.
6ridges ma�l span p ivate p perty but must connect to an acceptable segment of the basic �
skyway syst�m, givi g acce s to a public street or other public property. Bridges will be
of a consistent desi n throu hout the downtown area, consisting basically of expo ed steel
vierendeel tyusses p inted d ep brown, with terrazzo floors and an egg crate grid uminous
ceiling. I

4 Bridge Support Structures and Services - Bridge support structures will support the bridges
at either end and will be contained within the buildings unless it is structurally necessary
, to provide bridge supports independent of the building. Bridge services are defined as those
� electrical and mechanical systems which provide heating, cooling and electrical service
to the bridge. Also included is the roof drainage system.
5. Vertical Access Facilities - Vertical access facilities in the form of either stairs or
escalators provide access to the concourse nodes, corridors, and the bridges from the street.
Vertical access between the concourse and street level will be required throughout the _
skyway system with escalators being required at the principal points of access to the skyway
system. Generally, vertical access must be provided at or near each end of the bridges
crossing streets and may also be required at other locations within the system. Elevators
will also be required within each building in the skyway system to provide vertical access
for the handicapped. �
D. COST SHARING AND FUNDING POLICY
The following cost sharing and funding policy applies to all skyway system elements (concourse
corridors, nodes, bridges, bridge support structures and services and vertical access facilities)
not under a construction contract at the time of the adoption of this policy by the City
Council, unless otherwise specifically exempted from this policy by the City Council. Such
skyway system elements specifically exempted by the City Council will be covered by
. the General Policy Statement - Pedestrian Concourse System-Downtown Urban Renewal
Project-ivlinnesota R-20, as adopted by the Housing and Redevelopment Authority of the
City of Saint Paul, Minnesota, Revised August, 1972.
This cost sharing and funding policy is considered to be consistent with St. Paul's adopted
Capital Allocation Policies. The skyway system is considered to be a Service System Improvement
and any proposal for an addition to the existing skyway system must be based on the merits
of each proposal as to its economic benefit to the City. The sole and final determination
for each addition to the existing skyway system will rest with the City Council. _
� "�. ^�+ �• ' _5_ �o'/J�U
� . ,
1. Brid�es - Th City ill pay ot more than one-half the total cost of each skyway ridge,
including constr�uction osts, ar hitect's fees and other associated costs. The exact a ount
will be negotiated betw en app opriate City staff and benefitting building owners or evelopers.
The City Counc�l will ake the final determination on the exact cost to be borne by he
City. �
2. Concourse orridor and No es - Benefitting building owners or developers will p y
all costs for constructi g, rem 'eling or reconstructing their buildings to provide ac ptable
concourse corri ors an nodes hrough their buildings.
�
3. Brid e Su ort Stru tures a d Services - The developer or building owner at each nd
of the bridge w ll be re ponsibl and will pay all costs for the provision of structural upports
witnin the buil�ing; wh ch are ecessary to accommodate the bridge. The City will t
be financially responsi le for s ch increased structure to support the bridge, nor will the
City build inde�endent upport for the bridge at either end at its expense.
With respect to bridge ervices the building owner or developer will design and conn ct _ _
the mechanical and el trical ystems of its buildings to the bridges and supply to th bridge
facilities the necessar heat, c oied air; and electrical power from the mechanical a d
electrical sysfejms of i s buildi gs, unless the building owner or developer is advised y the
City that, for I specifi bridge a previously constructed building'already contains s h
facilities. Where a bri ge con ects the improvements of one developer or buildin� o ner
with that of an�pther d veloper or building owner, each party so connected shall be r sponsible
for agreeing aslto how hey wi share the cost of providing the required mechanical nd
electrical servi es to t e bridg . Such a cost-sharing agreement must be reached by the
affected partie s� and s bmitted to the City for its approval prior to the start of brid e construction.
For bridges in ew buil ings fo which the location is determined at the time of wor ing
drawin re ar�tion, t e devel per's working drawing and specification will include echanical
gP P
and electrical equipm t desig , location and connections to supply necessary servic s to
the bridges. F�r bridg s wher precise location is not yet determined at the tirr,e of working
drawing completion on the bui ing, the developer must agree to retain the service f its
architect, at t e time uch bri ge location is determined, to provide necessary ciesig services
as stateo abov�. .
. " ` '", •.
-6- ' ' " �
. , ,
The building owner or developer must agree to retain the services of its architect to provide
information, drawings, documents, and to spend the time necessary with the City's architect
in order to coordinate the provision of inechanical and electrical facilities to the bridge
and to resolve all structural, aesthetic and related matters relative to bridge connections. ,
All such design, consultation and coordination will be accomplished in a timely manner
so as to permit construction of the bridge as soon as the two buildings to which the bridge
connects are capable of receiving the bridge.
4. Vertical Access Facilities - Vertical access facilities will be installed by the benefitting
building owner or developer at no cost to the City. Existing vertical access facilities
will be used wherever possible. The City Council may, at its sole and final determination,
require the installation of escalators or elevators as part of the skyway system. The benefitting
building owner or developer will pay the costs of such vertical access facilities.
5. Directional Signs - The City will pay for the manufacture of all iliuminated directional
sign boxes and faces within buildings. The benefitting building owner or developer will -- .
pay all costs for supports, electrical service, installation, operation, maintenance, repair
and replacement of such signs. Such directional signs shall be installed by the building owner
or developer prior to the opening of the skyway bridge, or bridges, for public use. �
6. Hardship Determinations - If a benefitting building owner can show to the satisfaction
of the City that the costs noted above constitute an economic and financial hardship, the
City may consider financial assistance to any building owner (other than a developer) in
an amount not to exceed the market value of the square footage of that part of the building
which is required for second-level skyway easement purposes. Developers shall not be eligible
for such hardship determination. As used in this section, developer shall mean that person,
partnership, joint venture, or corporation who is constructing a building or building addition
to which a skyway bridge will be connected.
In cases where the modification of inechanical and electriccal equipment in a building proves �
economicaily infeasible, the City will consider providing the necessary mechanica! and
electrica! equipment as part of the skyway bridge. The City will make the final determination
as to wh�ther modification of inechanical and electrical equipment is, in fact, ecpnomically
infeasible. The City Council will make the final determination on all such hardship cases.

E. RE UIR MENTS FOR E PENUITURE OF CITY FUIVDS IN HARDSHIP CASES
� 1. Cost Esti ates a d Reim ursements - As requirements to the expenditure of C ty
monies for s yway s stem c struction where the City determines there is a hard ip
to the buildi g owne , preli inary plans and cost estimates therefor will be submi ted
for approval , y the ity. In o event shall the City provide monies under the prov sions
of this aocument for improv ments which are not clearly identifiable as part of t e skyway
system. The cost.es imates rovided by the owner will include the estimated squ e foot _
cost of all finishes i tegral the area of the skyway system as set forth in Secti n F.
Such cost informati n shall 'ncluded estimated costs for approved vertical access acilities
to be provided by th owner If the building owner undertakes to have any of the bove
improvements done y a con ractor other than the contractor being retained by t e City
to do the bridge con tructio , the City will reimburse the building owner only for ctual _
costs incurr d. Suc costs ust be proven to the satisfaction of the City.
2. Submissi n of Pl ns - Pl ns shall be submitted by the building owner for appro al by
the City, in icating all mat rials and finishes used in the skyway system and the chitectural
manner in which th skywa system is separated from abutting private building a eas
where the c�ncours occurs within the owner's building. The City will make cert in additions
to such drawings, i cluding igns and other graphics, furniture, and other element consistent
with achieving iden ity and esign continuity for each segment of the skyway sys em.
F. DESIGN AND h"ATERI LS RE" UIREti4EhTS AND STANDARDS
In order to achieve the desi n identity, continuity, and ease of orientation neces y if
the skyway Isystem 's to fu ction effectively, the City has established certain de ign and
materials r quirem nts for the skyway system. The design of the skyway system within
each block hall ad ere to hese requirements. With the exception of the design nd construction
of directio al signs as note in Section D.S., the developer or building owrier shal be responsible
for all cost of cies gn, con truction, installation, maintenance, replacement and epair
of ali item enume ated in his section.

1. Skyway System Symbo! - A graphic symbol has been developed for the skyway system.
Such symbol shall be used to indicate the location of the skyway system within the building
in a manner approved by the City. No other use of the symbol will be permitted.
2. Skyway System Graphics - Graphics will play a vital role in orientation in the skyway
systein, and through consistency of design and placement, will also constitute a vital element
in achieving skyway system identity. The City will be responsible for the design and location
of all skyway system graphics; the types of graphics and general location criteria are as
follows: _
(a) Directional Signs - Directional signs are the largest and most conspicuous signs in
the skyway system. They are used to give directions to streets and to major buildings
in the skyway system. All directional signs will be attached to concourse ceilings
(or suspended f rom the ceilings, depending on ceiling height), will be perpendicular
to the axis of the concourse area in which they are located and will be the only such
signs to be mounted in this manne�. The most important of such signs will be illuminated.
The building owner will provide: 1) support for the directional signs above the ceiling;
2) electrical services to the signs; 3) the pendants which connect the signs to the structure
above the ceiling. The City has developed standard designs for the directional signs
and will advise the developer or building owner of the specific location of the pendants
and signs.
� (b) Maps and Route Directories - Wall-mounted or free standing maps and
route directions of the skyway system will be placed in prominent locations
at the head of vertical access facilities, within nodes, or in other appropriate
locations so that the pedestrian may, together with the directionai signs,
determine the skyway route to be used in order to arrive easily and quickly
at a desired location.
3. Skyway Equipment - To achieve prominenee and identity for major node areas, the building
owner, with the approval of the City, is encouraged to provide skyway equipment in and
near the node areas. Such equipment may include sculptures, decorative fountains, public
telephones, public toilets, drinking fountains, kiosks for display of material of public interest,
benches, trash receptacles, planter boxes and other equipment as approved by the City.
The location of such equipment in or near node areas will be determined jointly by the City
and the building owner or developer, based on analysis of expected traffic patt�erns within
the node and to adjacent private areas. The City and the building owner or developer will
jointly approve the design of al! such elernents to be placed within the skyway system.

" 4. Sk wa F1'oor Ma erials - 11 skyway bridges will contain terrazzo floors of a b own
and grey chi in a da k matr' (Venice Art Marble V-1036, or equivalent), herein r ferred
to as "skywa terraz o." Th City will require the use of skyway terrazzo in all or a major
portion of th' node t be dev loped central to each block of the skyway system. S ch
use of a cons ant ma erial t each bridge and central node will establish a repetiti e rhythm
of spaces tha will a'd in ach eving identity and continuity for the skyway system. In concourse
corridors ru ing be ween br dges and nodes, other floor materials may be used, t ugh
a consistencyl of floo mater' 1 for concourse corridors must be maintained throug out
each building. Skyw y terra zo and the concourse corridor floor material may not be
used, unless changed in color tone or texture in private non-skyway building areas n proximity
io the skyway syste where uch use would tend to obscure the identification of s yway
materials with conc urse ar as. If the building owner chooses to use carpet or ot r non-
permanent flooring ateriai for concourse corridors, the building owner must agr to
replace such carpet ith ne carpet or other material matching as closely as poss ble the
original in c 1or and exture t such intervals as may be determined by the City.
5. Concours Ceilin s and L htin - Concourse ceilings shall be of the same mat rials
thr�ughout y one uilding. tVlinimum ceiling height shall be 8'0", and no signs or other
graphics oth r than s speci 'ed above shall be fastened to, or suspended from, th ceiling.
Lighting fixt res sh 11 be re essed or attached in immediate proximity to the ceili g; hanging
or pendant fixtures il! not e permitted. Luminous ceilings are permitted. Artif'cial
lighting intemsity sh 11 be a inimum of 30 f.c. at every poirit along the floor. Th artificial
lighting shall be sup lied wit eiectricity in such manner that the interruption of ervice
in any circuit inside he buil ing will not result in total interruption of the require Iighting.
. ��here adjacent priv te buil ing areas are open to the concourse, a differentiation in ceiling
treatment, height, 1 ght lev 1, and/or light color shall be achieved. At nodes and t other
locations where ceii ng-mou ted directional signs are to be located, additional lig ting
and/or outle s shall e provi ed to accent such graphic material.
6. Sk wa S stem alls - here the skyway system is defined by walls or partiti ns separating
the concour e from djacen private building areas, such walls may be of a design and
function con istent ith the use and architectural design of such private building reas.
Exceptions ill be r quired t wall areas where graphic panels, maps, route direc ories,
or other sky ay-rel ted gra hic material is to be located. Skyway system walls s all be of
durable, easaly main ainable finished materials. Where shop signs, department id ntification
signs, or other perm ent g phics not related to skyway graphics as specified ab ve
are required, they s all be 1 cated on and/or parallel to concourse walls at a heig t between
7'0" above the floor except signs painted on shop windows may occur at other hei hts

consistent with good design p�actices. No signs, except as specified for skyway related
graphics, may project from concourse walls into the concourse easement. "
7. Skyway Colors - Skyway-related signs and other graphics wil! employ a specific color
scheme throughout the skyway system as developed by the City. Non-skyway related signs
and graphics in proximity to the concourse or node area utilizing the same color scheme
as skyway-related graphics will not be permitted.
G. EASEMENT REQUIREMENTS
In order to assure public return for the public investment made in development of the
skyway system in the downtown, all areas of the skyway system must be located either
on public property or within public easement granted without consideration by the developer
or building owner. Such easements shall be coterminous with the designated areas of concourse
corridors and nodes and vertical access facilities; also, shall extend on the ground floor
from the foot of vertical access facilities to a public sidewalk or other public property,
giving access to a public sidewalk. Such easements shall be required for both those skyway
system elements f or which the City is responsible and those elements constituting a-link
� in the basic system for which private parties may be responsible. The easements will be
in forrr} satisfactory to the City and will be limited to the life of the improvements constituting
the skyway system. The easements will grant to the public the right of use of the skyway �
system f or purposes of ingress and egress and pedestrian transit without limitation, except
that such easements may attach reasonable conditions regarding closing parts or all of
the skyway system within the developer's or owner's structural improvements during non-
business hours as dictated by reasonable security requirements of the buildings through
which the concourse passes.
Subject to the following conditions, the developer or building owner shall have the�right .
at any time to change the locations of such easements and the easements shall so provide,
on the condition that new easements. are granted which permit the continuity of the skyway
system, and the developer or owner installs a new pedestrian concourse on the new easement �
area at the developer's or owner's sole cost and expense.

In the evell t the d velope or owner elects to substitute a new easement locati n, it will
submit to the Cit the de cription thereof, the plans and specifications therefo , and proof
of ability ito pay d met d of payment therefore for the approval of the City, which approval
shall not b�e unrea onably ithheld. The City shall have 90 days after the subm ssion in
which to a�pprove r rejec the submission. If the City rejects the submission, i must do
so in writi�g with n the 9 -day period and, in such writing set forth in detail, th valid reasons
for such r�jection In the event the City fails to reject the submission within s id 90-day
period, th� City's onsent hall be conclusively presumed. The City shall not b required _
to approv� any ch nge in asement location unless the easement to be submitte therefor
contains a� least he sam area and dimensions of the existing easement; and t improvements
thereon ar�e of th same c aracter, quality and functional characteristics of the initial concourse,
including r�eplace ent of igns, graphics and furniture provided in the original s yway system.
When the �ity ap roves t e substitution as aforesaid, the part:es shall then join in the execution

H. OPER/�ITION ND IViA NTENANCE REQUIREhiENTS
The skywa� syste , inclu ing all future additions, is located on public property r within
public eas i ments. As suc , the City has a proprietary obligation for operation, aintenance,
repair and Ireplace ent of the skyway system. Nevertheless, the City will requi e, as
part o� the� easem nt agre ment, that the developer or builciing owner assume t e full responsi-
bility for tlhe oper tion, m intenance, repair and replacement for a!1 segments f the skyway
system loc,ated wi hin its roperty, for bridges over streets abutting its propert , and carry
out such o�eratio , maint nance, repair and replacement at its own expense wit out cost
to the City�. In th event hat the developer or building owner fails to operate, aintain,
repair or r�place t e conc urse system, or any part tnereof, to a reasonable sta dard,
the City mlay perf rm suc operations and assess all costs incurred in so doing a ainst
the develo�er or b ilding wner in accord with the normal procedures for assess ents
related to �idewal maint ance, repair and replacement in the City of Saint P 1.
Where sky�Nay bri es con ect the property of one developer or owner with that of another,
the develo�bers or wners ay share equally, or on whatever other basis is rnutu lly agreeable
to both, th� bridg operati n, maintenance, repair and replacement costs. Such agreement
rnust de su�mitted to the ity for approval prior to cominencement of bridge co struction.
