Energy Park is a development of 226 acres in the Midway area of Saint Paul bounded on the east by Lexington Parkway, on the west by Prior Avenue (extended) , on the north by the Burlington Northern main line tracks and on the south by the ma.in line tracks of the former Great Northern Railroad. Parts of Energy Park already scheduled for development are as follows : an Energy Technology Center by Control Data Corporation, 950 units of housing by AHW, Inc. and an office/research building by Energy Center Building, Inc. Land for additional development in Energy Park is available through the Port Authority of the City of Saint Paul . The concept of Energy Park is one of mixed residential and job providing industrial/commercial environment, in short, a new neighborhood in Saint Paul . This new neighborhood is to have its own central heating and cooling system to provide heat to all buildings in Energy Park during the winter and cooling to those buildings in the summer. Construction in Energy Park and reconstruction of existing buildings in the Burlington Northern' s Cnmo Shop Yards will utilize energy efficient technologies in order to reduce energy consumption in Energy Park. The proximity of housing to job providing industries and commerc`i al establishments will permit reduced dependence on the automobile for persons who choose to live and work in Energy Park, thereby further conserving scarce energy resources . Ultima.tely some 4800 persons will be employed in Energy Park and appro�zmately 3, 000 people will live there . The overall development includes new utilities , streets , sidewalks, street lights , bicycle and walking paths , and a concourse to permit sheltered pedestrian access in inclement weather to all ;�f the buildings in the Park. � ' r �1��'�s -2- A draft copy of the proposed Tax Increment Financing Plan together with all attachments and exhibits thereto, are av�ailable for public inspection beginning May 14, 1981, from 9 o'clock a.m. to 4 o'clock p.m. , Monday through Friday, at the offices of the Economic Development Di�ision, Department of Planning and Econ- omic Development, City Hall Annex, 12th floor.
