Just a quick reminder about the community meeting tonight at 6:30pm at Mt Olivet with updates on new community center in the 1700 W. 50th Street Chapel space.
Please see the message below from the staff at Mt Olivet about a open house on the chapel redesign on August 17.
As you might know, Mount Olivet has received permission from the Minneapolis City Council to deconstruct the chapel located at 1700 W. 50th Street. We were so grateful for the neighbors who participated in a community meeting a year ago to talk about our hopes, values, and vision for turning this site in a community gathering place. As we prepare to take the next steps to realize these hopes, we invite you to another neighborhood meeting to hear your thoughts. We are eager to share some developments in our plans and to share with you the necessary next steps for Mount Olivet.
We hope you can join us on Monday, August 17, at 6:30 in the rehearsal hall at Mount Olivet. Please enter door #3, at the far south end of the building. There will signs to direct you to the hall and volunteers present to help. Representatives from HGA, our architectural firm, will also be present at the meeting.
