Details: Work is expected to begin this spring on the first phase of Metro Transit's $133 million project to expand its Heywood Campus in the North Loop of downtown Minneapolis — the construction of a four-level, 62,552-square-foot headquarters for the Metro Transit Police Department.
The new $27.5 million police building is an extension of the existing Heywood Office Building at 560 6th Ave. N. It is to be built on what is now a surface parking just to the east of the offices, joined by an enclosed connection. Concurrent modifications will be made to the five-story Heywood Office Building, including the addition of a new HealthPartners clinic for Metro Transit employees.
