Cedar Point Wins 'Best in Real Estate Award'

In its Best in Real Estate issue, Minneapolis-St. Paul Business Journal recognized Richfield's Cedar Point Commons with the 'Best Retail Development' award.  The award committee praised the project for its significance to Richfield, its complexity, the way in which the project complements its surroundings, and its excellent architecture and site design.

Cedar Point is a $40 million, 30-acre, 375,000 square-foot project on the east side of Richfield at State Highway 77 and 66th Street.  The project will include a Home Depot and SuperTarget, TCF Bank and numerous smaller restaurants and retailers.  It is expected to open in October.

The project has been many years in the making.  That's due mainly to the project's proximity to the airport and collaboration of multiple agencies, including the Minnesota Department of Transportation, Hennepin County, Metropolitan Airports Commission, and more than 80 residential and commercial property owners.

The article, published April 20, stated:  "Because of the developer's persistence, the collaboration with so many organizations and the design of the project, the Business Journal's Best in Real Estate judges named Cedar Point Commons the winner in the Retail Development category."
