Chanhassen's Downtown Set for Exciting Redevelopment Including Tribute to PrinceSource: Google Street View

The landscape of downtown Chanhassen, Minnesota is set for a transformation with the recent approval of Roers Companies' redevelopment project. This initiative will see the replacement of the Country Inn & Suites along with the shuttered Chanhassen Cinema at the corner of West 78th Street and Market Boulevard, according to the City of Chanhassen, Minnesota. The anticipated change is generating a mix of excitement among locals and visitors with the promise of a new beginning for the area.

While the project signals a fresh chapter for Chanhassen's downtown, it ensures continuity of cultural homage with plans to erect a new mural honoring the late, iconic musician Prince. An existing Prince mural, situated on the back wall of the cinema, has been an attraction for enthusiasts seeking to capture memories beside the artwork. The City of Chanhassen urged community members to take their photos with the soon-to-be-demolished mural, assuring them that "Prince will return!" in the revamped downtown space.
