Community Engagement
We want to know your thoughts. Throughout the process, we will have opportunities to provide your suggestions and thoughts that will shape the design of the park and also name the new park! Please go to Park at the Heights Engage Saint Paul website to learn more about community engagement opportunities. Contact Ellen Stewart with any comments or input you have at any time during the design process. ellen.stewart@ci.stpaul.mn.us
Updates
We are designing a park that is a great space for the community to come together and for both new residents and current residents to play, visit and relax. We are currently gathering information from the community and doing a site analysis. This part of the process will help us develop some options for amenities that people want and layout of the park.
We will post information on this site to keep you up to date on what we are doing.
For more information on the full 112 acre development project at the former Hillcrest Golf Course site, visit the The Heights project webpage.
