Make Common Space Great!

Make Common Space Great, is an initiative of the Trust for Public Land's Green Lines Parks and Commons Initiative.  The initiative is focused on the creation of four pop-up demonstration park models along the St. Paul Central Corridor Green Line.  The focus is to find new and innovative ways of creating and utilizing public plazas and common spaces along University Ave in St. Paul and Minneapolis  Minnesota. Each demo site will act as an exploratory lab and support mechanism to stimulate conversations about the best types of programming and amenities for each area and will serve as a spot light on what is possible on the commons.  Each location will serve as a grand experiment into what a park or a common could look like and may offer some new ideas about what constitutes green or common space.
