<br />J. North St. Paul. No parking; across from public works; no community entrance. <br /> <br />k. New Brighton. Good example of community center with play area always busy; <br />an accommodation and connection of many uses; partnership with Mounds View <br />School District; replaced commercial with residential. <br /> <br />1. Maplewood and Shoreview. Lots of civic uses but not connected; typically <br />suburban; stand-alone buildings. <br /> <br />m. General observations: <br />find compatible uses to share parking <br />need to join together the uses; housing and retail with parking at rear; <br />many centers were not yet part of community <br />all buildings were not awe-inspiring; in Roseville we use "campus-like" <br />developments; Center Pointe in Roseville is a good example; is there a <br />community sense of architectural identity?
