<br />~;, <br />~'J1' Lakes proiect ready for Part Deux <br /> <br />BUSINESS PARK WOULD <br />CREATE 6,000 JOB$ <br /> <br />Drive west along County Road C in <br />Roseville, past Snelling Avenue, and <br />you will see a curious landscape on your <br />right. <br />Truck terminals with dozens of parked <br />trailers are interspersed with brand-new <br />office buildings and a two-story medical <br />center paneled in gleaming blue glass. <br />/: Welcome to the first 15 years of the Twin <br />I. Lakes transformation. <br />! Late last month, the Roseville City <br />I Council approved the final amendment to a <br />k plan for the redevelopment of the remain- <br />ing 170 acres in Twin Lakes Corporate <br />Center, a 275-acre, L-shaped parcel with its <br />southwest comer at Cleveland Avenue and <br />County Road C. <br />''This will be a two-decade project," says <br />Dennis Welsch, Roseville's community <br />development director. "That may sound far- <br />reaching, but the first 100 or so acres took <br />15 years." <br />In the mid-1980s, the city decided to <br />clean up the brownfields and build a busi- <br />ness park. Ryan Coso US Inc. began devel- <br />oping the property in 1990 and has com- <br />pleted four office/showroom buildings and <br />a medical center totaling 322,000 square <br />feet and housing 1,150 jobs. <br /> <br />The next stage <br />Roseville's plans riff on the current <br />themes. City officials envision an upscale <br />business park with multilevel office build- <br />ings along Cleveland Avenue and nestled <br />behind the current office/showroom space. <br />Service retail - hotel, fitness center, <br />restaurants, etc. - would occupy the prime <br />comer at Cleveland Avenue and County <br />Road C. <br />Twin Lakes eventually would create <br /> <br /> <br />PHOTOS COURTESY OF CITY OF ROSEVILLE <br /> <br />The first phase of the 27S-acre Twin lakes Corporate Center, at Cleveland Avenue <br />and County Road C in Roseville, was developed over a lS-year period. <br /> <br />6,000 jobs and comprise 3 million square <br />feet of development. <br />At the bend in the L-shaped parcel is the <br />base of Langton Lake, and the city would <br />like to see a housing and office mix around <br />the lake and the inside perimeter of the <br />property. The site eventually could contain <br />400 to 600 housing units, with a density of <br />10 to 24 units per acre, <br />"Truck terminals are not the most effi- <br />cient use of this land," says Cathy Capone <br />Bennett, Roseville's economic develop- <br />ment specialist. <br />Beginning in the late 194Os, transporta- <br />tion companies took advantage of the high- <br />way access in Roseville and built more than <br />a dozen truck terminals. Snelling Avenue <br />and Highway 36 were two-lane roads and <br />Highway 65 ran where Interstate 35W is <br /> <br />now. <br />"In the 1950s, this was cutting-edge," <br />Welsch says. "But now it's time to go from <br />a pioneer land use to a refined and sophis- <br />ticated land use:' <br />For the short term, the site still makes a <br />great site for a truck terminal, says Bob <br />Hagen, who owns a 7-acre parcel at 2785 <br />N. Fairview Ave. He expects to sell the land <br />for development eventually, but in the <br />meantime he is taking advantage of his <br />prime location. <br />"I was told in 1988 there would be a road <br />going through here and it is still not here," <br />he says. "I've learned not to get too excited <br />about these things." <br /> <br />Cash for cleanup <br />Years of pumping fuel, cleaning truck <br />
