Reconnect Rondo | |
| The ReConnect Rondo project is a transformative initiative aimed at restoring and revitalizing the historic Rondo community in Saint Paul, Minnesota, which was devastated by the construction of Interstate 94 in the mid-20th century. At its core, the project envisions creating Minnesota’s first African American cultural enterprise district, anchored by a community land bridge that reconnects Rondo’s past vibrancy with a future of economic and social equity. This ambitious effort seeks to rectify historical wrongs, restore wealth and control to African American residents, and foster opportunities for businesses, housing, and leadership development within the community. Through collaborative partnerships with leaders, organizations, and policymakers, ReConnect Rondo is committed to ensuring equitable development, preventing gentrification, and creating a national model for restorative justice and sustainable community revitalization. | ||
