807 Broadway Update
Last summer, the Minneapolis School Board selected Hillcrest Development to purchase their old headquarters (807 Broadway). Currently, the School District and the City of Minneapolis are working on resolving a Right of Way issue on Quincy Street. Once this issue is resolved, Hillcrest will start work on the project. Here is a link for more details on their plans: http://hillcrestdevelopment.com/projects/807-broadway-street-ne/

Background
In 2012, Logan Park residents formed the 807 Broadway Task Force to have a voice in the decision-process. The Task Force was designated the community engagement partner by the CPED (Community Planning and Economic Development Dept) who assisted MPS in selling 807. The Task Force met with all interested developers and recommended 100% commercial development for 807 to replace lost jobs from the relocation of MPS headquarters.
