The Official City Newsletter for Arden Hills Residents August/September 2016 <br />Construction begins on Tavern Grill Restaurant and Bar <br />A building permit was issued in June, <br />construction has begun, and Arden <br />Hills is on its way to having a new <br />restaurant. Hemisphere Restaurant Partners <br />is building a Tavern Grill Restaurant and <br />Bar along Lexington Avenue in the Arden <br />Plaza development. This will be the fourth <br />Tavern Grill in the Twin Cities metro <br />area, with others in Edina, Woodbury, and <br />Blaine. The Arden Hills restaurant will be <br />similar to the others, providing a relaxed, <br />up-scale atmosphere. The company website <br />describes it as “a celebration of food, beer, <br />and great people.” <br />The building, at 9,500 square feet, will <br />seat 256 patrons, and an attached 3,050 <br />square-foot outdoor patio will seat another <br />106 in nice weather. A variety of shade <br />and ornamental trees, shrubs, and perennial <br />plantings are included in the building’s de- <br />sign, created by the Minneapolis architec- <br />ture firm Nelson. The restaurant will face in <br />toward the other buildings in the complex, <br />and will connect via walkways to the public <br />sidewalk on Lexington Avenue and the <br />internal sidewalks within the retail center. <br /> <br />Tim Cary, project manager, estimates a late <br />fall opening, weather permitting. He says <br />the company loves the market, loves the <br />City of Arden Hills, and is excited to be <br />opening here. <br />Hazelnut Park: It’s a winner!Each year, the New Brighton-Mounds <br />View Bulletin (part of the Lillie Subur- <br />ban Newspapers) runs a Readers’ Choice <br />contest where readers can select their <br />favorite businesses, services, and civic <br />organizations. Categories include com- <br />munity, products and services, health and <br />beauty, and food and beverages. <br />This year, Arden Hills’ Hazelnut Park <br />earned honors as the “favorite park” in the <br />community section of the contest. <br />The New Brighton-Mounds View Bulletin <br />serves communities like New Brighton, <br />Mounds View, Arden Hills, Shoreview, <br />North Oaks and others. <br />The lights are on! <br />by Susan Cathey <br />New lights on the County Road E bridge <br />over Snelling Avenue look attractive and <br />increase safety.
