Just Listed: Capitol Region Watershed District to get renovated headquarters
The CRWD, which plans to spend $7.3 million on the renovation of the existing building at Aldine Street and Thomas Avenue, will move staff into the building when construction is finished this fall.
The new space is being designed to utilize green-building principles, such as stormwater-management practices and energy-efficiency measures to conserve resources. The building is intended to meet gold LEED standards.
The facility will also have gathering space for community and partner organizations to use, a watershed learning center and a pocket park.
MSR Design is the architecture firm for the project and JE Dunn is the construction manager.
CRWD offices are currently located off Energy Park Drive, not far from the new location.
The district works to protect, manage and improve water resources in portions of St. Paul, Roseville, Maplewood, Falcon Heights and Lauderdale.
