A corridor in transition, 1st Avenue is still the gateway to Downtown Shakopee. Part of the original town plat for Shakopee, small, connected street blocks lend 1st Avenue fantastic neighborhood fabric. Proximity to downtown and the riverfront provide momentum and opportunities to revitalize 1st Avenue. Aging commercial sites are underutilized assets that can be redeveloped with a mixture of uses, filling the gaps in the city’s housing, office, and retail/dining offerings, while improving the appearance and walkability of this important corridor.
