Developers already building restaurants, offices and a hotel around St. Paul's Allianz Field announced they've added plans for an outdoor ice skating rink and a flower garden to their project.
Driving the news: Bill McGuire, the lead developer and Minnesota United FC's owner, revealed the new features at a neighborhood meeting last week.
The rink would be located under an outdoor pavilion that could be used for a farmer's market or other community events in warmer months.
The latest: McGuire also unveiled new renderings of the restaurants — an upscale diner and a pizza/gelato/coffee concept — which he expects will be open by spring. Workers could move into the office building by summer.
Hotel construction will take longer — it's expected to wrap up in 2027 — and McGuire's team is still exploring plans for a music and arts venue next door.
