Through innovative public outreach and a collaborative design process, The Artery received endorsements and grants from multiple agencies and jurisdictions, helping the city fund the majority of construction and spur private economic development.
The concept of The Artery began a decade ago, envisioned to increase visibility of historic Main Street and connect the city core to the main thoroughfare, Excelsior Boulevard. With this as a starting point, the City of Hopkins wanted to draw people from the proposed Hopkins Southwest Light Rail Transit (SWLRT) station, through The Artery, to Main Street. Innovative development processes featured multidisciplinary input from public works professionals, engineers, planners, urbanists, artists, and supporting specialists. Our staff provided the project preliminary and final design, construction administration, and inspection to bring the city's vision forward.
The Artery integrates interactive public art, innovative technology, a two-way cycle track, and educational elements of storytelling and cultural history all within the public realm, making this a prime destination along the proposed SWLRT Green Line. Few projects bring out such positive collaboration to create something unique, yet mutually successful, on multiple fronts.
