Remodeling and renovation of a mixed-use development in Minneapolis, Minnesota. Design plans call for the remodel of a 123,000-square-foot, 11-story above grade municipal facility; and for the renovation of a municipal facility.

Government Center Office Relocations & Remodeling This project will remodel approximately 123,000 SF of administrative office space on 11 floors of the Hennepin County Government Center, located at 300 S. Sixth Street in downtown Minneapolis. The purpose of this project is to remodel office space in the Government Center based on guidance from the updated Downtown Campus Master Plan and a District Court Facility Master Planning Study. Due to the Covid-19 pandemic, this project was put on-hold. During this time, the county has been updating the previously developed master plan and revising future workplace strategies to better align with service delivery efficiencies realized during pandemic's remote work of most county functions. A new hybrid workplace strategy, namely Future of Work, has been implemented for most county office functions which includes open, unassigned, activity-based work settings. This new workplace strategy identifies new worker profiles consisting of on-site, hybrid and remote for the purpose of sharing and collaborating in spaces while employees are in the office in turn requiring less office space for county functions. Based on the recommendations of the updated Downtown Campus Master Plan, approximately 123,000 SF on 11 floors of the Administrative Tower will be remodeled in various levels of office space reconstruction over a 2-to-3 year period. Several floors will accommodate the relocation of the County Attorney's offices from the upper Courts Tower floors to the Administration Tower to accommodate the future relocation of Family courtrooms/chambers from the FJC. Other floors being remodeled in the Administration Tower will accommodate public interfacing and various support functions for Family Courts currently located at the FJC.
