"The Lakewalk extension project is important to us and I thank the Minnesota DNR for helping make it happen," Mayor Herb Bergson. "I thank our staff which worked hard to get the grant and I.m looking forward to a beautiful, expanded Lakewalk as a result. This project will link Lakeside with the Bayfront area in a whole new way and will complement light rail service to the Lakeside area as well."
Phase 2 will construct a trail from 36th to 47th Avenues East within the North Shore Scenic Railroad.s right-of-way. Total project cost is estimated at $900,000.
