<br />City of Arden Hills - Comprehensive Plan - DRAFT <br /> <br />Nazareth Hall on the Northwestern College Campus <br /> <br />Nazareth Hall was constructed in 1921-22 on the Northwestern College campus. <br />It was constructed in the "Lombardic Romanesque" style from northern Italy. It <br />faces east to overlook Lake Johanna. It includes six buildings constructed as <br />one, with several courtyards styled after the Vatican. The building covers <br />approximately 37,400 square feet of ground and was designed to fit into its <br />naturallakeshore setting. <br /> <br />Round Lake Prehistoric Site <br /> <br />The Round Lake prehistoric site is located on a small knoll on a peninsula on <br />the southwestern shore of Round Lake. Archaeological exploration has <br />determined that the knoll on the peninsula is most likely of natural origin. <br />Artifacts relating to the manufacture or maintenance of stone tools were <br />observed on the site. and it appears that it may be eligible for the National <br />Register of Historic Places. This site. was threatened by development in 1997; <br />however, the City was able to obtain a conservation easement over the <br />peninsula to preserve it in its current condition. Further research, as well as <br />community interest, is required before actual placement on the National Register <br />of Historic Places. <br /> <br />10.5 Natural Resource Inventory Map <br /> <br />Although the portion of Arden Hills south of Highways 96 and 10 is considered <br />fully developed, there is an abundance of mature trees, lakes, wetlands, open <br />spaces, parks, and other natural amenities that give the City its highly valued <br />natural and well-landscaped character. The southern two thirds of Arden Hills <br />contain more than 363 acres of public parks and undevelopable open spaces. <br />Northwestern College, Bethel University, and Mounds View High School also <br />contain highly valued natural areas of varying character and quality. <br /> <br />The Arden Hills Army Traininq Site (AHATS) property js also home to some of <br />the most significant natural resources in Arden Hills, including lakes, wetlands, <br />woodlands, meadows, rolling terrain, and vistas. The kame, which is a <br />geological formation made by retreating glaciers, is located in the central part of <br />the property and is the highest point in Ramsey County. While some <br />institutional development from the Minnesota National Guard may occur on the <br />southern part of the AHA TS propertv. much of that area is anticipated to remain <br />as open space. The AHATS property is not open freelv to the public. but the <br />National Guard does allow some scheduled visits on the pro~ <br /> <br />DRAFT <br />5/15/2008 <br /> <br />73 <br /> <br />Deleted: AHA TS side of the TCAAP i <br />p_~~erty_____________________.J <br />
