Project Summary
In the space below, summarize the project goals and components.
The Phalen Corridor, a 2-1l2 mile underused rail corridor on the east side of the city, has suffered from
numerous plant closings, growing unemployment, and rising crime. An initiative has been underway since 1994
to develop a broad-based community partnership to rebuild the economic, social, and physical prosperity o£ St.
Paul's East Side.
The focus of this LCDA is the 20-acre western segment of the cotridor, which is the future location of
the Westminster Junction Business Center, and the first phase of redevelopment conducted through the city's
Phalen Corridor Tnitiative. The intent is to make this segment a showcase for state-of the art ecological
landscape design and stormwater management. While the desia is for the public land surrounding the new
industrial buildings planned for the site, it wi11 provide a standard for a11 the businesses as they move in. The
Port Authority intends to use its covenants to encourage all the individual businesses to treat stormwater
management as a key amenity and integrated component within the overall landscape plan.
This proposal requests funding to implement the proposed erosion control and stormwater cleansing plan
for the site. The landscape design includes planting erosion control grasses and flowering trees, shrubs, and
evergreen trees to provide stormwater management and add aesthetic value to the neighborhood and residential
properly sunounding the site. Two stormwater detention areas will be installed.
The focus of the design includes reconshucting the natural site topology and native plant culture site to
perform ecological functions that would have historically occurred on the site. This plan includes providing a
landscaped buffer between the existing residentiai houses and the industrial buildings that provide pleasant
neighborhood views; planting prairie and shrub massings to act as an upland buffer to slow and absorb
stormwater; and uti]izing onsite infiltration technology such as, vegetated swales, rain gardens, and stormwater
wetlands.

2. Additional Project Information �rZmZronepa
• In the space below, provide additional project information or lustory of the site (not included in
the project summary on page 1), inclnding any plans to phase the proyect.
The communifies surrounding the Phalen Cortidor have a rich tradirion of welcoming St. Paul's newest
cirizens, from the Swedish, through the Irish, Polish, Italian, Mexican, African and Southeast Asian. Family
roots grow proudly on the East Side for generations. Today's challenges include a high unemployment rate,
decreasing home ownership, a fear of rising crime, and a common misconception that the azea is worse than it is.
The East Side neighborhoods, however, do have a strong social fabric, acrive churches, committed neighborhood
groups, and ttuiving business associarions. The scarcity of high incomes does not mean a lack of community.
The neighborhood has retained many of the qualities that first made it an atttactive place to live, including well-
built family homes, a mix of small, medium and large businesses, and access to most of the Twin Ciries' major
roadways.
The Phalen Corridor promises to increase that access and vitality even more. The Corridor will link
neighborhood businesses to downtown Saint Paul and Tnterstate 35E. Transportarion improvements attract new
businesses, but the East Side will need a place to put them. There are 100+ acres of brownfields on the Phalen
Corridor that will be cleaned up and transformed into prosperous business parks, of which Weshninster Junction
is the first. Other pazcels of land aze being redeveloped as greenspace and housing.
• In the space below, state how LCDA funding will overcome obstacles or provide a catalyst.
Describe any time constraints, financial hardship or complexity that requires LCDA funding.
Address what could not be accomplished but for receipt of an LCDA grant.
The St. Paul Port Authority and the Phalen Corridor have been working to redevelop the Westminster
Business Center for 6 years. All of the funds for the redevelopment and Phalen Boulevard construction aze
committed except for landscape improvements. The Business Center will be available in late 2004 and it is
imperafive that the landscape improvements are complete by that time to prevent erosion, soil compaction etc.
We have sold property based on landscape improvements and the concept of a progressive business pazk.

• New housing developments will be set-off by this road (up to 1000 new units of housing)
• It will grant interstate access to valuable urban land.
• We should rebuild infrastruchue in the inner city, where it is needed.
• Revitalization of the inner city helps prevent urban sprnwl.
• Connecrions to maj or bicycle paths wlth a bicycle/pedestrian path to follow Phalen Boulevazd.
• Busway connecrions into the Phalen Comdor with the Riverview Corridor busway plan.
• In particular the potenrial for greenspace relationships is great'
I. Describe how the project links to transit, if transit is available.
The vision for the Phalen Corridor project provides employment, educafional, and home ownership
opportunifies, as well as transportarion opporiunities to residents who have suffered yeazs ofbusinesses leaving
the Eastside and the blight and decay associated with their departures. Phalen Boulevard wi11 provide a vital
link between Payne Avenue, Arcade Street, downtown, and Interstates 35E and 94. This link wili provide
easier access to the Eastside and improved transit opportunities for Eastside residents. The redevelopment plan
for the Phalen Corridar area also encourages the use of altematives to single-occupancy vehicles such as transit,
bicycles, and walking.
J. Environmental grotection and enhancement:

' Potenrial greenspace relationslnps:
• The Willazd Munger Traii & The Gateway Trail converge on the Phalen Corridor at Lake Phalen, creating a
network of bike trails across the metro area.
• Along the whole corridor, opportuniries abound to convert stormwater retenrion pooLs into larger scale wetland
areas, creating beautiful urban pazks.
• New pazks and Greensapce can serve as urban amenities to attract developers to build new housing and
encourage residents to recossunit to the East Side.
�3'�d�
K. Replicability: State how you wi11 use components of or processes developed for the project in other
locations in your community, or in the comprehensive plan and zoning codes.
The development will be a model for state-of-the-art use of native plants and the innovative treatment of
stormwater. Residents can utilize many practices used in the development in their own landscaping. Many of
the native species used in the project will be visually appealing and could be used on an individuaPs properry.
The landscaping and stormwater treahnent could also be used in adjacent private properties. By making the
development an attracrive place to walk and h�avel, residents will be exposed to these new concepts. With
exposure comes awareness helping to build a coinmunity of individuals who will be good stewazds of
greenspaces and natural azeas in the future.

B. Community's role: Describe any public participation processes {including zesidents,
businesspersons and others) in developing the proposal, including the process to date, and plans for
future community involvement in pro}ect implementarion.
Eazly on in the Phalen Corridor Development Strategy, Community Workshops were held to discuss
issues and gather ideas from members of the community. The neighborhood organizations helped
organize residents and businesses to be a part of the business center design. Residents voted on site
plans and transportation options. This same group will be convened to review and approve the
landscape plan and the maintenance plans.
C. City's role: How has the city supported the project?
The City of St. Paul has been a valuable partner in planning Phalen Boulevazd, Westminster Business
Center and financial anrangements. The city staff helped shepherd the plans through the planning
commission and ciry council far approval.

ATTACHMENT 4- PROJECT CONCEPT IMAGES
�ak Savanna historically existed at the Westminster Junction project site and is
the plant community that will be the model for design from an aesthetic and
ecological standpoint_ The deep rooted prairie plants wi11 play an important role in
treating stozmwater and will create a beautifai landscape to be enjoyed by the
surrounding neighborhood.
Stormwater system that incorporates parking lot
infiltration, a network of vegetated swales, rainwater gardens and stormwater
wetlands will make this site a model for ecological design in the Twin Cities.
Native plants will be chosen that are well adapted to urban condirions and well
suited to the creation of stunning natural gardens. (�
