From the Franklin Avenue Planning Partners (SNG, Redesign, and SCCA) BYSTROM SITE REDEVELOPMENT & 22ND STREET REALIGNMENT Community Planning - please participate! The process of spurring redevelopment in the Franklin LRT Station area has reached a critical juncture. Seward Redesign has been working for nearly 5 years to achieve the community's vision for safer access and a more walkable, populated environment. Work is beginning on a 4-acre parcel near the station, the Bystrom Brothers site, as well as for a new connection between Minnehaha and Cedar along a re-routed 22nd Street. The community is invited and encouraged to join us to learn about the current timeline for development planning for this important area near the LRT station and to become familiar with the site. City Desk Architects and the Franklin Planning Steering Committee will be leading the community through a series of events including: What: Intro to project/community walk of the site.
