Drop by the Blaisdell Y to paint a bowl for Kingfield Empty Bowls! Fuller Park artists have pre-thrown 100 bowls for the community to come decorate and be given away at our February community dinner which will be held on February 6th.
Stop in and join the fun!
In August 2017, the City of Lakes Community Land Trust (CLCLT) acquired 210 West 46th Street. The foreclosed property had been vacant for several months; however, the CLCLT saw the opportunity to create, in partnership with Kingfield Neighborhood Association, a long-term affordable home in the southwest area of Minneapolis, which is increasingly difficult to achieve. Through the CLCLT, the home will be sold to an owner-occupant earning 80% or less of Area Median Income and will remain affordable long-term through the community land trust resale process.
Please join us at the open house on Thursday, January 23 from 4:00 to 6:00 p.m. More information on sale of the property will be forthcoming.
City staff will be presenting and receiving comments on the Whittier/Lyndale Bikeway project, which in 2021 will improve existing bikeways on 1st Avenue South and/or Blaisdell Avenue between Grant Street and 40th Street. Enhancements could include curb protected bikeways, two-way bikeways, and/or intersection improvements. If you are not able to attend the presentation, you may submit comments on the project via the City’s online survey.
Drop by Fuller Park to watch some pottery spin and to paint a bowl for Kingfield Empty Bowls! Fuller Park artists have pre-thrown 100 bowls for the community to come decorate and be given away at our February community dinner. These same artists will also be providing demonstrations of throwing pottery on a wheel, and providing information about Fuller’s pottery classes and Open Studio time.
The Kingfield Neighborhood Association and a group of our neighborhood board members would like to invite neighbors to a community conversation around bike, pedestrian and street “issues”/projects in our neighborhood. We will share ideas and organize around improving conditions in and around our streets.
At the event we will:
– Provide quick updates on current projects/concerns with the neighborhood
– Have a conversation around experiences with and motivations for improving bike, pedestrian and general street conditions within our neighborhood
– Organize around specific concerns + current projects
– Discuss next steps- committee structure, purpose and communications
We will provide light food/beverages and have a space/activities for kids.
