Hagen Christensen & McIlwain Architects conducted a comprehensive City Hall reorganizational Master Planning Study that emphasized immediate improvements to the Front Service Desk and Lobby.  The three primary concerns for the project involved:

A). Security Enhancement

B). Customer Service

C). Space Efficiency

The Study began with an entire facility audit / assessment and moved into understanding existing Staff Stakeholder group programming needs and locations in the building.  The resultant Master Planning effort was composed of two phases: 1). Lobby Renovation and 2). Space Harvesting.  The first phase looked at opportunities for relocating the front desk so it was no longer an “island” condition while the second phase looked at gaining back inefficiently used spaces throughout the facility by reconsidering Staff locations in the building and work space sizing.  A cost estimating phase completed by RJM Construction provided financial numbers for the 2021 CIP budget and beyond.

HCM Architects was hired in 2014 to provide a comprehensive assessment and programming for the existing City of Fridley Municipal Center. The Facility is comprised of the City Hall functions, the Police Department and one of Fridley’s two main Fire Stations. The purpose of the assessment and programming was to provide a plan to improve and expand all three functions on the very limited existing site for the City’s long-term future needs. A phased approach and associated costs were provided.

In 2015 the City asked HCM Architects to provide a Master Plan for a new City Municipal Center on a portion of City parkland at the intersection of 61st Avenue N.E. and 7th Street N.E. HCM provided a number of options to relocate the Fridley City Hall, Police Department and Fire Station on this property. The overall goal was to create a New City Commons Campus adjacent to existing Parks and Schools. The study also showed option for the integration of a potential new Community Center for Teens and Seniors.

In this same time period, HCM Architects was hired to provide a comprehensive assessment of the existing City of Fridley Public Works Campus, and to develop a short and long-term overall Master Plan. The site has one working entrance at the northeast corner, and shared property lines with 71st Street NE, the Fire Department Training Facility and Anoka County property at Locke Park.

HCM Architects provided a 3-phase Master Plan to correct various existing conditions and to plan for future growth in a planned, phased approach. The plan addressed the needs such as undersized Vehicle Maintenance Bays with safety issues, campus traffic flow, security, fueling island relocation and many others as well. These Master Plans provided the City of Fridley a road map for the future.

The structures are designed to incorporate stone, wood and detailing that recalls the qualities of the existing Lodge structure that create special gathering places that maximize views and access to the site.

Year Completed: 2019

Location: Arden Hills, MN

Client: Ramsey County

Square Footage: ———

Hagen Christensen & McIlwain Architects and its team developed a comprehensive Feasibility and Planning Study for Ramsey County’s existing Public Works Campus.  The existing 1.5 million square foot site included an operationally inefficient 250,000 square foot building that housed not only the Ramsey County Public Works staff but also five other On-Site Partners, such as the Ramsey County Sheriff Department.  Through a three-phased approach of:

1). Building Audit/Assessment

2). Program Needs Study

3). Master Planning Space Study

It was determined that the long-term needs of Ramsey County could be met although not all of the On-Site Partners would be able to remain on site.  Cost estimates for all Master Planning options were prepared by Kraus Anderson.
