This is one of several TOD plans resulting from a Livable Communities Opportunities Grant to plan for higher-density, pedestrian-friendly, mixed-use developments along transit corridors in anticipation of the development of light rail in the Central Conidor. While three other compl'eted or ongoing planning effarts have grown out of the original Opporiunity Grants (the University Avenue TOD Framework at Lexington and Snelling, the Fairview and University TOD Study, and the Universiry Avenue Corridor Vision), the redevelopment of University and Dale is the first time a TOD plan will be implemented, so its success is critical for the implementation of transit-oriented development at the other nodes. Da1e Street Village will consist of two new four-story buildings with uuderground parking and first-floor commercial space. One building will have 60 units of affordable senior rentai housing above, and the other will have 28 market-rate condominiums. Livable Communities funds will be invested in rivo components: •$950,000 will be spent to condemn and acquire, relocate and demolish the Saigon Restaurant and the Nordic Shop. •$1,727,000 will be spent to construct underground pazking, which is essential to achieve the high density needed to make the project consistent with TOD principles and financially feasible. oj�i/ZZ ' � e�. y� .: C N t3 y L'� � : O R .� � O C � � � G � ❑ � U '��.5 o " O' y�.

Additional Project Information �rm�ronepa 1• In this section, provide additional project details you did not have space to include in the "Project Summary" on page 1, and any pertinent informaiion on the history of the site. (Limi[ 20 lines) - The northeast corner of University and Dale, currently occupied by a police substation (wIuch replaced a former strip club) is a key commerciai node in the Frogtown neighborhood and in a central location, just 5 minutes from the State Capitol, with excellent transit service,�and immediate access to Interstate 94. With the construcfion of Interstate 94 in the t 960s, University Avenue began a long decline that at its low point in the 1470s attracted marginal and blighting uses like adult movie theaters. Revitalizing the intersection has been a major focus of the City for about 30 years, starting with the federal Model Cifies program in the 1970s that built the Unidale Shopping Center at the southeast comer, and the City's acquisitiori and eventuai demolition of the Faust Theater at the southwest comer in the 1990s. The status of the other corners of the node is as follows: • The southwest corner: Construction has started on the Rondo Library with 98 affordable apartuients above. A rivo-story o�ce building is proposed at University and St. Albans. • The northwest corner: Midtown Business Center, which entails 20 minority owned businesses and the $6-million new Western Bank building. • The southeast corner: UnidaFe Mall is now in new ownership, and it is anticipated that with the completion of Dale Street Village, new purchasing power from the residents of this project and the apartments at the southwest corner will accelerate the revitalization of tYus center. �. Lescribe phasing for the proiect if applicable and include details of phases (Limit20lmes) lhe llale Street Village is a comprehensrve mixed used pro�ect designed to intensify and introduce new commercial uses and provide a major housing development that offers choices for mixed incomes and ownership opportunities. The senior housing component allows neighborhood seniors to move away from the maintenance required of their old houses yet remain in the neighborhood. Phase I: This first phase is the subject ofthis application and provides the literal foundation for the project. In this phase we will acquire 2 commercial buildings through the threat of eminent domain, relocate the existing businesses and demalish the blighted structures. Lendways is currently owned by the neighborhood collaborative partners. The CiTy will sell at a discount the land cunent(y occupied by the police station and relocate the police. The construction of the underground 85 caz parking shucture that will serve both buildings. Phase II: The development of 5,700 sq. ft. first floor retaiI space, restaurant, related surface parking and 60 units of senior rental housing facing University Avenue. The one- and two-bedroom rental housing will be kept affordable with six (6) of the units affordable to households at or below 30% of the azea median income (A1YQ), six units affordable to households between 31 % and 50% of the ANII and the remaining units (48) affordable to households between 51 % and 60% of the A1�II. The senior housing component is strategically placed near a major transit node. , Phase III: Constructing 28 senior two-bedroom condominium units oriented along Sherbume Avenue priced at $170,000 -$195,000 depending on t(�e floor. The housing wilI be built above 34 enclosed surface parking spaces which will serve the businesses. Amenities include a party room, exercise room, shop and decks with sliding glass doors. 3'hese units will bring ownership investment to the corner and help buffer the existing single family homes across Sherburne. •a r� 3.

"But-For" Test Assessment. Describe fhe unfilled gap needs fhat can only be filled. by an LCDA grant awazded in 2005. Describe why this project or funded components could not occur within two years of the grant award. . The LCDA faading wi2t be used for undergroand restdenf parking and fhe acquisition, reiocarion and demoliti of aging, underutilized commercial uses. The zoning code dictates that the project as being currently proposed would require 141 pazking spaces. If a(1 these spaces were surface pazking, it would have taken np 70% of the site making the project physically impossible. . The acquisition and relocation of the 6usinesses and Yhe constzuction of the underground pazking can not be amortized through the rents of the units or the sale of the condo units. Receiving a LCDA grant for the acquisirion and construction of the underground pazking will be the catalyst for the HRA to provide the. hdusing affordability gap funding, Tax Increment assistance, entiflement Housing Revenue Bonds and ta�c credit assistance to tha rental project.

LIl[Ilt 3U tiRGJ The project is located on a key intersection along University Avenue, the best-used transit route in the Twin Cities metro area. The site is also slated to be a light rail transit stop for the Central Comdor. We aze expecting significant growth in the Central Corridor area, as more infrastructure investment is planned and the central ciries become rnore attractive to families and icedividuals. However, the current land uses, which aze one-story and two-story commercial uses alongside large pazking lots and one single-family house, do not use land efficiently. In the University-Dale Transit-Oriented Development Study supported by the local community, we envisioned buildings of four or five stories at this no�e to "hold the comer." The proposed project will introduce 88 new units to this site, which currently has 4 housing units. The proposed project also increases the amount of commercial space. b.

Describe how the project will connect land use to the local or regional transportation system, in the ways listed above, or in other ways. - The development pattern here is high-density, mixed-use with underground parking. It strongly supports transi� services and is one of the most efficient land use patterns seen in the Twin Cities azea. Currently there aze frequent bus services along both [3niversity and Dale. The site is also planned to be a light rail stop. - For automobiles, the site is well served by public roads and highways. University Avenue and Dale Street are both "A" grade minor acterials. University Avenue has a daily traffic volume of 27,600 cars, and Dale Street carries 23,250 cars a day. The site is '/a mile from the Dale Street exit of Interstate 94. - Pedestrian connections are important to the site. Pedestrians frequently cross at the node, and will also visit the businesses on the site, across the street, or the new library kitty-coraer from the site. Sidewalks will be widened from 12 feet to 20 feet to accommodate outdoor seating for a restaurant and coffee shop as we11 as providing landscaping and lighting. b. Describe any new sidewalks, trails, or bike paths, or improvements to existing pedestrian infrastructure planned to link to transit. Limit 8 lines � The project will include sidewalks both along Dale Street-and University Avenue. Currently the backside of the police substation is a parking lot neazlq one acre in size. The proposed development will replace a portion of the parking lot with street-front office and common space. Along University, the proposed development also eliminates one driveway from the site and increases street-front retail, making the site much safer and more pleasant for pedestrians. At the same time, by widening and improving sidewalk connections near the intersection, it makes the transit or light rail stop more accessible to pedestrians from the rest ofthe neighborhood. o!�-vS� 3.

The existing site is largely pazking which creates a high level of sediment waste. There is no existing rate or water quality control. We will be reducing runoff volume via the following methods: Infiltration gazdens {rain gardens), underground filtration chambers at the east end of the site, and some use of green roofs. Pollution will likely be reduced by installing a Minnesota Pollution Control Agency (MPCA) approved V2B 1 storm water treatrnent system to remove lazge sediment particles and floatables, rate controlled runoff at the roof, and utilizing best management practices such as a regular sweeping af the parking area. In addition to maintenance/inspection schedule will be estabtished for ongoing pollution control. b.

The University-Dale Transit-Oriented bevelopment Study, adopted in 2004, went through an extensive neighborhood participation process with 3 lazge community meetings spanning 4 months. The plan proposed 4-5 story development at this corner and included a number of design suggestions. This proposal is very consistent with the TOD Study. In addition, six community organizations came together several yeazs ago to focus on the redevelopment of this intersection. Together they formed the University Aale Redevelopment Holding Company (UDRHC) to ensure that future development is community driven. UDRHC currently has ownership of the Lendways building b.

The Globe Building Materials site is a 6-acre highly visible, blighted and underutilized propezty containing a large, vacant building. It is located on East 7�` Street in the East Side communit}� of Saint Paul. The Globe Suilding Materials Company went banla upt and vacated a 90,000 square foot building in 2001. This property is located immediately south of the fmal consh phase of the Phalen Boulevard, between Earl and Duluth Sts. This proposal requests funding for the demolition of the Globe Building and related site improvements. The demolition of this building is the first crirical step in redeveloping this site. The overall development goat of this project is to transform this site into one that will be marketable to one or more entifies that will provide jobs at good wages and benefits for Saint Paul and East Side rasidents. The demolition of this vacant and obsolescent building, along with other remediation, redeveTopment, and land preparation activities, will yield a mazketable site for jobs growth. Redevelopment of this site is an important part of the jobs component of the Phalen Corridor Initiarive. This effort will contribute to and be linked with other neighborhood revitalization iniriatives (both completed and under way), such as new residential consh�uction throughout the neazby Railroad Island neighborhood and Payne-Phalen uea, the 7otuison Achievement Plus School and East I'MCA projects, Meiropolitan State University new library, Phalen Boulevard construcrion, new MTC bus bam, and the job generators/customers of the Port Authority's Williams HiIl and Westminster Junction Business Centers. This project is ready to proceed. The Port Authority, upon receipt of LCDA funding, will begin building demolition. The Port Authority's Brownfields redevelopment efforts have been recognized throughout North America, due to its aggressive site prep and jobs generation focus, and therefore this infill development project will have replicability in other parts of the Twin Cities Metro azea. 34528.v1 Project Summary Summarize goals and componeuts for the project or current phase. If the project has more than one phase, address project goals for the current phase in this section, as well as more broadly, if desired.

In tlus section, provide additional project details you did not have space to inclnde in the "Project Snmmary" on page 1, and any pertinent informafion on the history of the site. Through a recent Banlsuptcy Cotst process, the Port Authority took ritle to this property appro�mately one month ago. The Port Authority's redevelopment of the Globe Site will greatly enhance the efficient land use pattem in this part of the East Side community, by demolishing the existing building, remediating pollution, and converting this vacant, unused 6-acre parcel of land into a productive use as an integral part of the East Side community. It will provide a highly visible infill development, which wilt support the Phalen Boulevard completion (construction now under way), local bus and bike transit routes, and pedesh paths. The people who will eventually work at the redeveloped Globe site will be able to avail themselves of area housing, services at the nearby Johnson Achievement Plus School and East YMCA, recreational opportunities at community pazks facilities and open space areas, different modes of transportarion, library and other educarional opportunities at the neazby Meh State University, and retail services at the neazby Seeger Square shopping center. Regazding connection with community housingy living options include a range of nearby housing choices, including the over 350 units that have recently been developed in the area, as well as additional new conshucrion (up to 700 new units) that are being planned. The redevelopment of the Globe site, and the demolition effort as the first Phase, will provide much needed ready-to-develop land. The Port Authority has experienced greater demand for its Brownfield sites than supply, and the redevelopment of this site for jobs gowth will achieve both Metropolitan CounciPs LCDA goals and those of the Phalen Corridor Initiative. Neighborhood residents, businesses, Saint Paul public officials, and the Port Authority have long wanted this site redeveloped. Community participation in the Phalen Corridor Iniriafive and focus on the vision for a community with good jobs and a range of quality services and amenities has been consistently high. Through significant community input and coordination among a few dozen organizations in the Phalen Corridor Initiative, the City and Port Authoriry Brownfield and job development experts, this site t�as been designated far infilI development. �. Lescrlbe pnasing for the project if applicable and inclnde details of phases (Limit 201ines) • SiteAcquisition—May2005 Completed with Port Authority funding May 2005 ($329,000). Was surprisingly offered via public aucfion and acquired at a fraction of its previous sale price. • *Building Demolition — 3anuary 2006 — May 2006 Will commence immediately upon receipt of demolition funds. According to the MPCA, the building must be demolished to aIlow for proper environmental investigation and remediation prior to redevelopment. • Site Remediarion — Iv1ay 2006 — September 2006 Will commence immediately following building demolition. The Port Authority wifl produce a Response Action Plan for approval by the MPCA and then submit multiple fimding applications at various levels of govermnent to fund the multi-million dollar cleanup. • *Site Improvements — September 2006 — Sune 2007 Infrastruchxre improvements such as: site access, sidewalks, streetscape, urility connecrions and others as required. • Site Development — March 2007 — September 2007 Sale of properry for development by a j ob producing business. Buyers are required to bring at least 1 job/1000 sq. ft. of building and add more jobs over a 10-year period, pay a living wage + benefits, and complete a high performance building design process. *= LCDA Funding requested for these 34528.v1 0�� 3. Bene�ts of LCDA funding. Address all that apply of the following: How will LCDA funding overcome obstacles, provide a catalyst, ar increase tfie value of tfie nroiect to the communitv? LCDA funding for the demolition of the Globe building will bwst open the revitalization, poilution remediation, development, and jobs generation of this site. This project cannot move forwazd until the building is demolished. 'I'he Port Authority gasped this opportunity to address a long term bligiit in the area as the result of a surprise aucfion held by the banlauptcy trustee in Hatmnond, Indiana. T7us project was not feasible prior to the auction, as the site had been previously offered for sale for over $1.5 xnillion. At auction, the site was acquired for $329,000. As this acquisifion was relatively imexpecteci, the Port Authority had not previously requested gant funding for this proj ect. The demolirion of the facility is quite significant and expensive and we are unable To ptoceed without grant funding for the demolition. 4. `But-i+'or" Test Assessmenk Describe the unfilled gap needs that can only be filled by an LCDA grant awarded in 2005. Deseribe why this project or funded components could not occur within two yeazs of the grant award. But for public intervenfion, this site, which has been vacant for 4 yeazs, would continue as a community eyesore and polluted, dangerous property, This project is ready to proceed upon receipt of demolition fimds. It is estimated that at least 120 jobs will ultunately be provided on this site. In its current condition the site is an attractive nuisance and quite dangerous, with multiple pollutants and accelerants on the site, As the fmal segtnent of the Phalen Boulevard is constructed the site remains a black eye immediately adjacent to the south of the boulevazd. In its current state it has exacerbated the perception of crime in the azea (the site is only blocks from where St. Paul Police Sgt. Vick was ldlled a few weeks ago) and impedes the community's ability to make the revitalization of this azea a realiTy. 4Vhile the Port Authority typically can cobble together grant funds from severai sources for the remediation of such sites, public funding sources for demolition acrivity aze quite limited. Contamination clean up funds from EPA, DEED, Met Council, and more recenfly Ramsey County ERF, continue to be avaiIable. But for the LCDA funding and its fle�bility, we believe it will be impossible to demolish the building as quickly as is needed and i�ring the site back to the productive interconnected use wluch is so desperately needed in the azea. As noted above, this project was not initially part of the Port Authority's 2005 work plan, annual budget, or grant application cycles. We have quickly reprioritized to address the opportimity, and need, presented by the banlQUptcy auction. We aze ready to move forward as soon as a source of demolition funding has been secured. a .. _I �� 5.

This site has been seen as a"hole in the donuY' of this portion of the East Side. Its demolition, other revitalization treatments, and new development will provide a critical link to other azea ameniries, and also vastly improve the quality of community life on the East SiBe by encouraging housing inveslments as the momentum of the Phalen Corridor moves easiwazd with the conslruction of the 3`� Phase of the Boulevazd. This jobs site will be integrated into the existing neighborhood as well as new housing proj ects in the Phalen Corridor, such as approximately 150 new units in the Railroad Island neighborhood, approximately 200 new units at the Payne-Phalen intersection, and a mix of apactrnent rehab, senior coops, and townhomes in the Lake Phalen b.

Commnnity's role: Describe any public participation processes involving residents, businesspersons and others used to develop the proposat. Describe plans for future community involvement in project implementation. For over 10 yeazs community leaders, business leaders, and non-profit community organizations have planned for the massive revitalization of the Phalen Corridor. The process has included countless community meetings, design charettes, public hearings, and community coordination meetings. Particulaz to this project, tfie East Side Area Business Associarion has written a letter of support, as has the Phalen Corridor Initiative, the over-arching collaborative and planning goup for these activities. Residents and business owners in the immediate area have been very distressed over the loss of jobs at Globe in 2001. The level of public comments has again peaked as the Port Authority has begun securing the site. Discussions with adjacent business owners regarding plans to redevelop the site have shown their overwhelming support and relief. Reverend Luches Hamilton of St. John's Church, directly across the street from the site, was so excited to hear the site would finally be cleaned up and jobs returned to the neighborhood, he imxnediately announced it at the following Sunday's church service. b. City's role: How have elected officials, city council initiatives or actions supported the project? .�. The City Council of St. Paul, acting as the HRA board, unanimously approved city funds to be used, if necessary, at the banlauptcy auction in May 2005, dexnonstraring the City of St. Paul's commitment and support for the project. Several yeazs ago, city officials requested the Port Authority undertake environmental studies and the initial legal steps to engage in communications with the Bankruptcy Trustee. For over 10 years elected officials at all levefs of govemment have supported and assisted in securing funds for the construction of the adjacent Phalen Boulevard, and for many parts of the Phalen Corridor Initiative. Cleaning up this eastem end of the proj ect has long been one of its obj ecfives. Elected officials supporting the Phalen Comdor and sitting on its Steering Committee inclnde: Mayor Randy Kelly, Congresswoman Betty McCollum, City Councilmember Dan Bostrom, City Councilmember Kathy Lantry, Ramsey County Commissioner Jim McDonough, Ramsey County Commissioner Rafael Ortega, State Senator Mee Moua, State Rep.

The LCDA grant would be used to build Chestnut Plaza, a signature public space, which is the finai, pivotal - piece of the Upper Landing Urban Village. Upper Landing is Saint Paul's newest urban village, reclaimed from a Superfund site on the Mississippi River. The Plaza will be the "keystone" that $es together the new neighborhood, River, Shepazd Road (Saint Paul's designated Great River Road), Samuel Morgan Regional (pedestrian % bicycle) Trail, historic Sack / Head House redevelopment and Upper Landing Park (east of Chestnut Plaza), downtown, Science Museum of Minnesota / National Pazk Service complex, historic Irvine Pazk and West 7`�` Street. Located at the intersection of Shepazd Road and Eagle Parkway, a plaza fountain will terminate the view corridor from the Cathedral to the River; the fountain will also visually align with views from Harriet Island Regional Park back to the Cathedral. Public art will signal the existence of "Little Italy," a neighborhood that once stood where Upper Landing is today. The LCDA grant would also be used to build tcvo staircases that wiIl d'uectly link Chestnut Plaza to Block One, the final phase of development in the Upper Landing Urban Village, as well as the Regional Trail river overlook / boat ramp at the river's edge just below the Plaza. Tlie following goals guide this project: 1. provide a signature public space to anchor the Upper Landing Urban Village (with over 700 housing units and 6,000 square feet of commercial space) and connect to downtown, Irvine Park, the Mississippi River and the regional trail system; 2. demonstrate siguificant public inveshnent to leverage on-going private investment; and 3. complete the redevelopment of a heavily-polluted site on the Mississippi River.

In this secfion, provide addirional project details you did not have space to include in the "Projecf 5ummary" on page 1, and any pertinent information on the history of the site. Historically the former Upper Levee (now Upper I,anding) azea flooded and was undeveloped before 1880, until two railroad companies began to expand their tracks and fill in swampy azeas behind a levee. During the late nineteenth century, the eastem portion of the Upper Landang was developed by stone cutting facilities, lumber companies and a flour mill, while the City used the westem part of the azea as a dumg and low azeas were built up with municipal waste. When the dumping stopped, squatter families built shanty homes on the site. By the eazly twentieth century, this community of several dozen structures became known as "Litt1e Italy," named for the predominance of ethnic Italians living there. Many of the residents were impoverished and there was no city water or sewer service. After Worid VJar II, a combination of social, natural and polirical forces brought an end to St. Paul's Upper Levee Italian community. In 1951 and 1952, spring floods inundated the area, causing the City to evacuate the last Little Italy residenPs by the end of the 1950s, and to rezone it industrial. From 1966 to 1988, Kaplan Scrap Iron Company used most of the Upper Landing azea as a scrap metal yazd. In the late 1980s, the grain silos and scrap yazd were demolished and the site sat vacant, leaving a highly-contamivated site listed under the federal Superfund. The significuice of building Upper Landing Urban Village on this former, highly-polluted site cannot be understated. It took 30 yeazs and substantial public reinvestment to cleaz, clean up and prepare the site. Public sources included.$3M DEED, $702,708 in Met, Council Tax Base Revitalization Program and 4 Department of Transportation grants for cleanup and the Sack / Head House Adaptive Reuse, RegionaT Pazk Trail, Upper Landing riverbank unprovements, Mississippi River interpretive overlook and barge fleeting azea improvements. Over $8.SM in public investment has leveraged over $170M in private development of 700 units of new housing. The fmal, necessary piece for this new, high-density urban village is a public space - Chestnut Plaza. apply. the uroiect, ii annlicabte, and �-tYS'� 3. Benefits of I.CDA funding. Address ail that apply of the following: How will LCDA funding overcome obstacles, provide a cata[yst, or increase the value of the nroiect to the communitv? An LCDA grant will be a final piece in the project "puzzle." It will complete a project that wIll demonstrate to legislators what Met Counci]'s mission is all about - muttiple fundiag sources com�ng together to develop well- designed new commututies out of highly-contaminated sites. Ten yeazs ago, a new neighborhood on this highly- polluted site was an absurd idea, but with the assistance of federal state, regional, local and private funding for clean-up / redevelopment and, hopefully, with an LCDA grant for a signature public space, the dream of a new community on this site is becoming a reality. Over $170M in private funding and $8.SM in public funding* have been invested in Upper Landing, and yet a final, pivotal piece remains under funded — Chestnut Plaza. The Saint Paul HRA has set aside $1.43M (hard and so8 costs) for a pla�a, but the funding is insufficient to build a focal pnblic space. A$500,000 LCDA grant is needed to overcome this financial obstacle. Also the increased value of completing a signature plaza is immeasurable to this high-density community. Given the diversity and density of housing in the Upper Landing Urban V illage, a signature public space is criflcal to livability. Also it wi1I connect the Upper Landing neighborhood to the west, Sfiepazd Road to the riorth, the regional trail ! River to the south and Upper Landing Pazk just east of the site / south of the Science Museum. * From DEED, Met Council Tas Base Revitalization Program, and Deparhnent of Transportation grants for cleanup and the Sack / Head House Adaptive Reuse, Regional Pazk Trail, Upper Landing riverbank improvements, Mississippi River inYerprerive overlook and bazge fleeting area unprovements. 4. "But-For" Test Assessment. Describe the unfilled gap needs that can only be filled by an LCDA grant awazded in 2005. Describe why this project or funded components could not occur withiu two years of the grant award. `But for" an LCDA Grant, we would not be able to build a signature space with connecting pedestrian staircases to the Sam Morgan Regional Trail or to the adiacent Upper Landing Urban Village. The St. Paul IIIZA has designated $1.43M (hard / soft costs) for a"plain vanilla" plaza that wi11 not haue these linkages. Also, a 2005 LCDA grant is needed to insure a coordinated design and constr sequence between the Plaza, Trail, Head House and Block One — all of which will start construction in 2006. But for a 2Q05 LCDA grant, this synergistic opportunity wiIl be lost. os-�st 5.

Describe how the project uses land efficienfly, in the ways listed above, or in other ways. 1 V 11llGJ In the 1960s-1980s, the downtown river&ont land, on which Chestnut Plaza will be built, was once Kaplan Scrap Iron Company's scrap yazd. Grain silos and the scrap yard were demolished in the late 1980s. This urban- core site sat vacant for decades, leaving a highly-contaminated site listed under the federal Superfund. In 2000, it became cost-effective to remediate the soils and convert the site to the Upper Landing, a new riverfront urban village. The planned inveshnent in public infrastructure, such as Chestnut Plaza, helps increase and is supportive of Upper Landings' high-density housing of 61.77 units / acre and connects the adjacent communiries to the regionat trail and public pazks. The Upper Landing Urban ViIlage, adjacent to the proposed plaza, is a former brownfield site that now contains 600 housing units within walking distance of downtown. b.

Describe how the project will connect land use to the local or regional transportation system, in the ways listed above, or in other ways. Chestnut Plaza is one of the key historic and contemporary connections between downtown Saint Paul, the Science Museum of Muuiesota, the new Upper Landing Urban Village and a complex interface among rail, river, roadway, bicycle and pedestrian modes of transportation. Below the bluff, Amtrak trains connect to the Pacific Northwest and a spur connects to the Twin Cities Ford Plant. Nest to the raikoad tracks is new Shepard Road (St. PauPs designated Great River Road), providing a continuous connection aaross the city from Fort Snelling through downtown to Highway 61. Immediately south of Shepazd Road is the Upper Landing housing development, where over 700 new units of ownership / rental housing / commercial aze being built and occupied. To the south of Upper Landing is the Mississippi River, with the new Samuel Morgan Regional Trail for pedestrians and bicyclists built along the river's edge and in the old Shepard Road right-of-way. Along the river bank is an active bazge fleeting area. The Plaza will be the nexus between these systems. b. Describe any new sidewalks, trails, ar bike paths, or unprovements to e�cisting pedestrian infrastructure olanned to link to transit. Chestnut Plaza, with its proposed pedestrian staircase connected directly to Block One, will allow Upper Landing residents a seamless wallcing path through the new neighborhood to the regional trail, Shepard Road commuter bikeway and transit within'/z mile of West 7`� Street and the new Smith Avenue Transit Center (a new Metro Transit bus facility, slated to open September 2006 at about the same time as the Plaza, Block One and Trail completion). Note: Planning far Upper Landing limited pazking to 1.2 pazking stalls per housing unit based on the assusnption that a lazge percentage of owners will wallc / bike to work or use transit. �� 3.

Victoria Park is a new mixed-use urban village that will eventually replace a 65-acre brownfield between W. 7`�' Street and the Mississippi River at Otto Avenue. When completed, Victoria Park will contain neazly 850 housing units and a small amount of commercial space along a major transit corridor. Victoria Park will be a pedestrian-friendly, transit-oriented community that provides a range of housing types and prices; a new neighborhood pazk; a system of connected neighborhood streets for bicycles, pedestrians and cazs; and an improved connection to the Mississippi River. Redevelopment of the site will "reweave" the urban fabric and reconnect a portion of the community to its neighbors. LCDA funds are being requested for structured parking (96 spaces} for the Hathaway, a new mixed-use building in Phase 1B of Victoria Park on the block bounded by W. 7` Street, Thurston Street, River Valley Road and Adrian Street. The Hathaway will be a four-story, 68-unit condominium building with street-level commercial over structured pazking. Project goals include: • Creation of a mixed-income community, with affordable ownership opportunities at 50%, 80% and 115% of area median income {AMI). • Connection of affordable housing with public transportation and employment. • Provision of structured pazking to allow for higher-density development on the block, and a building design that respects the pedestrian and puts active uses at street level. • Mixed-use development along a major transit street in scale with the neighborhood.

In this section, provide additional project details you did not have space to include in the "Project Summary" on page 1, and any pertinent information on the history of the site. The former Koch/Mobil petroleum tank farm overlooking the Mississippi River has been the focus of intense community and CiTy planning ef£orts since 1997, resulting in the vision of an urban village with a range of housing choices for all income levels, new pubIic space and a smail amount of commercial space — along one of the City's highest-volume transit corridors.. Approximately half of the site, including the block on which the Hathaway will be built, was rezoned to TN3(Ivn Traditional Neighborhood Development (with Master Plan) in June 2005. (The creation of the City's Traditional Neighborhood District ordinance was funded by a Livable Communities Opportunity Cnant in 1999.) Phase lA is underway, wzth streets and utilities under construction, and housing construction anticipated to begin in August 20d5. The previous LCDA grant for this site was used for fill reGuired after removal of the old storage tanks. The Hathaway witl contain a range of unit types, offered at a range of prices. Twenty four (24) of the 68 units will be affordable to households from 50% to I 15% of AMI as follows: 9 units at 50% or below of AMI, 6 units at 80% or below of AMI, and 9 units at 115% or below AMI, The remaining forty-four units will be offered to buyers regazdless of income level. �. Lescriue unasm¢ tor tne oroiect, u aouucaote, ana mcmae netaus oi anases. t��ma zo The first phase, lA, is at the corner of Otto Avenue and West 7` Street. This phase will contain the 120-unit Sholom Community Alliance senior campus (with independent, assisted living and nursing home units); 43 units of townhomes, condominium and mansion apartment ownerslzip housing; and approximately 3,000 square feet of commercial space. Construction has begun on Phase 1 A and will be completed in May 2007. Phase 1B, which includes the Hathaway project, involves the construction 162 units of ownership housing in townhomes, condominiums, mansion apaztments and single-family homes. Construction on Phase 1B will commence in May 2006 and be completed in July 2008. Phase 2 will develop a portion of the site between the railroad uacks and Mississippi River with approximately 90 ownership condominiums and townhomes. Construction on Phase 2 wili commence in December 2006 and be completed in December 2009. Phase 3 wili consist of a mix of approximately 450 rental and ownership units, as well as a new City pazk. Housing construction in Phase 3 will commence in June 2007 and be completed in August 2011. OS-(OSZ 3. Benefits of LCDA funding. Address all that apply of the following: How will LCDA funding overcome obstacles, provide a catalyst, or increase the value of the project to the communitv? LCDA funding will help assure the availability of mixed-income ownership opportunities in the neighborhood by providing funds for structured parking. Structured parking is a pivotal part of the project, since it allows for the level of density desired on the block, which in hun allows for both a range of affordable housing options and commercial space to be ofFered in the building. In addition, structured pazking will permit the mixed-use building to be designed so that it meets the street in a pedestrian-friendly manner appropriate to a major transit corridor. The parking will be hidden by the horseshoe-shaped building and accessed from Adrian Street. While structured parking is critical to meeting the density goals the City has for this site, the fact that one-third of the units will have income limits on them means that assistance is required to fund the pazking sh - ucture. The LCAA funding will increase the value to the community by: • Providing higher densities on a major transit corridor. • Improving underutilized and polluted land. • Creating affordable ownership housing options. • Providing for pedestrian-friendly development. • Providing retail services to the neighborhood. 4. "But-For" Test Assessment. Describe the unfilled gap needs that can only be filled by an LCDA grant awarded in 2005. Describe why this project or funded components could not occur within two yeazs of the grant award. The Hathaway building, with ownership housing above street-level commercial space, is a new building type largely untested in both the greater Saint Paul and local neighborhood markets. Because the Hathaway is uniquely positioned to "lead the mazket" for this building type, unit prices have been set somewhat lower than might be possible once the market is established in the rest of the site. Therefore, there aze fewer resources availabie to provide structured parking. Structured pazking is critical; if parking were to be provided in a surface lot, the building pad would have to be significandy smaller and the unit count would be minimal. oS-1�S'� 5.

Describe how the project uses land efficiently, in the ways listed above, or in other ways. V ictoria Pazk is a 65-acre site previously used primazily for below- and above-ground petroleum storage. Remediation of this vacant industrial property is underway, and will be completed in phases. The site is (ocated in the middle of the W. 7` Street community, sunounded by traditional neighborhood fabric on three sides. The Mississippi River/Shepazd Road forms the boundary on the fourth side. What were once tank farms will be transformed into an urban village of almost 45 units to the acre. The site is served by City water, sanitary sewer and storm sewer; new utilities will be built within the project boundazies to connect with existing utilities. W. 7` Street is a major transit conidor, providing regional, city and neighborhood bus service. Redeveloping such a large piece of property within an existing neighborhood in a cote ciTy will significantly add to Saint Paul's housing stock and go a long way towards accommodaring the shaze of the region's growth allocated to Saint Paul.

W. 7�` Street is a major commercial corridor, providing employment and retail opportunities within wallcing and transit distance. Transit service on W. 7"� will connect Victoria Pazk to major local and regional employment and retail centers. With more than a third of the units in the Hathaway afFordable to households between 50% and 115% of AMI, the tzansit connecfions accessible on W. 7�' are an important link to employment, education, retail and recreation uses.
