East Seventh St. & Arcade St. — St. Paul and Maplewood
Thank you for joining us at the Community Design Workshop!
Thank you for joining us on Wednesday, Sept. 27 and Thursday, Sept. 28 at the East 7th St. and Arcade St. Community Design Workshop. It was great to have many community members attend and we appreciate the feedback and support to ensure the corridor’s visual improvements are community designed and led.
We are excited to review your input and develop visual improvements that prioritizes the wants and needs of the community.
Next steps
The project team is preparing to do additional community outreach this fall, 2023, to share the final design layouts and to gather feedback on additional safety improvements and roadside features. We anticipate the final design plans for East 7th St. and Arcade St. will be approved in 2024 and construction starting in early 2025.
