2040 Comprehensive Plan: Envision Shakopee

MCC MIXEDUSE COMMERCIAL CENTER Shakopee’s freeway-oriented commercial centers serve community- wide shopping and service needs and each draw activity from nearby residential neighborhoods. Older, first-generation shopping centers are candidates for adaptive reuse and redevelopment to meet modern market needs. As newer shopping centers age, they will also be candidates for adaptive redevelopment into more dense, mixed use centers, particularly where access to high frequency transit is provided. Site improvements should emphasize design quality, connectivity and efficient use of infrastructure.
