EDINAWhy Grandview Green?
Reconnect neighborhoods and communities divided by Highway 100
◦Reestablishes street grids, safe pedestrian walkways and bicycle paths
◦Provides new green space for community programming and social events
Increases economic productivity:
◦Of airspace above Highway 100
◦Of land adjacent to Highway 100
Enhances sustainability practices through increased storm water
collection, potential solar installations, etc.
Serves as a case study for lid development in Minnesota
The CITY of
EDINAMN Green Lid Outcomes
…also serves as a case study to uncover how we leverage
unused public land to spur private development!

Development Framework
Create a place with a unique identity announced by signature elements like: an iconic ‘gateway”, a central commons, serves the neighborhood’s needs, innovative 21st century sustainability approach
Completely rethink and reorganize the District’s transportation infrastructure to: make the district accessible to pedestrians and cyclists, provide automobile friendly access to convenience retail and preserve future transit opportunities consistent with the
district’s envisioned character
Leverage public resources to make incremental value-creating changes that enhance the public realm and encourage voluntary private redevelopment consistent with the vision that improves the quality of the neighborhood for residents, businesses, and
property owners
The CITY of
EDINA2016 Grandview District
Transportation Study
Short Term Changes (0-5 Years)
◦Pedestrian crossing and intersection improvements for Vernon and Eden Avenues
◦Conversion of two off-ramps from Highway 100
◦Reconfiguration of Arcadia Avenue along former Public Works site to accommodate pedestrians and bikers
Mid Term Changes (5-15 Years)
◦Vernon and Eden Avenues converted to support bikes, pedestrians, greenspace and traffic management
◦Added infrastructure to support bicycling on Eden Avenue over Highway 100
◦Enhanced bus stops
◦New frontage road providing southbound access to Highway 100 and development parcels on west side of Highway 100
◦Improved parking
Long Term Changes (15-30 Years)
◦New pedestrian and cyclist connection over Highway 100 to City Hall
◦New frontage road providing northbound access to Highway 100 and development parcels on east side of Highway 100
◦Direct connection for high capacity transit line and new district parking on the former public works site
The CITY of
EDINAGrandview Green Feasibility Study
In summary, the May 2017 feasibility study found:
◦No major fatal flaws in the development of a green lid over limited portions of Highway 100.
◦This concept has the potential to create approximately 13 acres of new buildable land on 16 parcels.
◦The area has the potential to support 2,525 new parking spaces and an additional 2.4 million square feet in private development.
◦After completion, property tax revenue is projected to increase from approx. $2 million to $100 million.
◦There is a dramatic range in the level of public investment that could be needed for this project:
$6.7 million for the construction of one lid segment (another est. $2.3 million for design, landscaping, etc.)
$70-90 million if both lid segments, new roads and off-ramps and public parking ramps are constructed
◦Several public entities could potentially be involved in this project –MnDOT, the Metropolitan Council, Hennepin County, the City of Edina and possibly others.
◦The initial economic analysis predicts the public investment will realize a 348% return on investment
over a fifteen year period (assumes a public investment of $37 million).
