Eden Prairie residents and real estate buffs can now get their geek on with a couple of click-happy online tools to track development in the town. Keeping tabs on new bricks and mortar just got easier, thanks to the City's rollout of two interactive maps detailing every nail and blueprint with a footprint.
With a straightforward design, the Development Dashboard dishes out the digits on every project the City has given the nod since 2017. According to official Eden Prairie sources, this handy tool can tell you how many electric vehicle charging stations are popping up, alongside the growth in residential units and the expansion of commercial and industrial square footage. Those interested can take it for a spin at the City's website.
For those who fancy themselves a more granular gander, the Development Projects map is like the bread to the Dashboard's butter. It lays out a laundry list of properties, both residential and commercial, at varying stages in their development dance. Viewers get the scoop on each project, with nitty-gritty details like where it stands, what it's morphing into, and who's behind the curtain, along with swanky site and architectural plans for the curious cats. It's all exposed on the Development Projects page on the City's website.
Eden Prairie is keeping communications lines wide open for any Joe or Jane with a query on the development maps; the Planning Division is on standby to field questions. Plus, if you've got a vested interest or just can't resist a good zoning drama, you can hook yourself up with Planning Commission email updates. Be the first to know when the next glass tower is going up or when a quaint row of townhouses is making its debut in Eden Prairie.
