DOWNTOWN EAST
MINNEAPOLIS, MN
The construction of Downtown East collectively created jobs for nearly 3,400 people
PROJECT INFORMATION
Ryan Companies partnered with the City of Minneapolis in a $400 million mixed-use development project that connects the downtown core to the stadium district and revitalizes the Downtown East neighborhood. The project occupies a five-block, 12.5-acre area next to the new US Bank Stadium, which is anchored by two new Wells Fargo-owned 17-story towers. Wells Fargo moved 5,000 employees into the two office buildings, which feature 1.2 million square feet of space connected by skyway. The development plans also included 26,00 square feet of retail space, a six-level parking ramp owned by the Minnesota Sports Facilities Authority, a public green space called The Commons, the first Radisson Red Hotel, and a residential complex named Edition
