Project includes new stage, seasonal restroom building and improvements to park entry, paths, lights, wayfinding, landscaping and stormwater management

The Minneapolis Park and Recreation Board (MPRB) is nearly complete with design plans for a number of improvements at Upper Father Hennepin Bluff Park. The project includes:
- A new performance stage and attached seasonal restroom facility
- New park entry plaza spaces
- Upgraded lights, path connections, wayfinding signage and trail markings
- Landscape and stormwater management improvements

Please note some of these improvements have been shifted to avoid disturbing historic artifacts revealed by an archeological investigation in June
The design plans are scheduled to be finalized this fall, then bid for construction. If the MPRB receives an acceptable bid, construction of these park improvements would begin in spring 2022.
