Episode 12: The Highland Bridge Redevelopment

The Highland Bridge - the Ford Site Redevelopment in St Paul, MN - is 122 acres of a mixed use vision created over the last 15 years.   

The Ryan Companies made the smart move and hired Maureen Michalski, a woman with a long resume in Twin Cities development to shepherd this one thru the complexities of developing a massive site with literally dozens of stakeholders and partners. 

Maureen Michalski joined me to talk about the history and nuts and bolts of a true mixed use development - adding 3800 housing units and associated retail, parks, civic.  She gives us a Master Class in developing a massive project and gives an overview of how we got here and where we're going on the biggest redevelopment in the Twin Cities right now.
