Since the acquisition of the property on this block, the City has been
trying to red~velop the block into retail and office. However,
redevelopment efforts to redevelop the block as a whole have proved
unsuccessful. Renovated retail and of'tice spaoe will prOVide new
opportunities for both Hopkins and businesses. The renovation will
still allow construction of a building on the parking area to the
east. ,

Alternatives.

alternative.
