A corridor in transition, First Avenue is still the gateway to Downtown Shakopee. Part of the original town plat for Shakopee, small gridded street blocks lend First Avenue fantastic neighborhood fabric. Proximity to downtown and the riverfront provide momentum and opportunities to revitalize First 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. Note: the visual to the right is meant as only an artist's rendition of what the First Avenue corridor could look like in the future.
