In July 2016, in Minneapolis/St. Paul, MN, USDOT officials assisted by CNU experts hosted the first #EveryPlaceCounts workshop to generate a vision for improving community health, mobility, and opportunity. This workshop's focus, according to the City of St. Paul:
"The construction of I-94 divided the Rondo, a historically African American community in the Minneapolis metro area, and as the city has grown more diverse, ethnic enclaves are still clustered on either side of the highway now including Asian Americans and Native Americans as well. The community would like to develop exemplary models of community design and engagement to guide future corridor planning efforts."
#EveryPlaceCounts Workshop Details:
