Planning to Last 30+ Years!
|  Great public spaces are where celebrations are held, social and economic exchanges take place, friends run into each other, and cultures mix. They are the "front porches" in our public realm.
5th Avenue and West St. Germain Street are going to be redesigned with a people-centered approach
to the planning and design.
When people describe a place they especially enjoy words like "safe," "fun," "charming," and "welcoming" tend to come up repeatedly.
How can YOU help shape a well-designed streetscape that will improve the aesthetic quality and safety of the street, boost economic growth, and invite greater interaction? You can join us....
....for a Streetscape Open House
Wednesday, September 21
5:00 - 7:00 pm Pioneer Place on 5th 22 5th Ave S Downtown St. Cloud

...the heart and soul of every city. It is the gathering place for its people and the physical and aesthetic expression of its collective visions. A downtown is the manifestation of the diversity of the intellectual, cultural, social, business and political consciousness of its people.
