Construction begins on first development at Rice Creek Commons
Officials from Ramsey County, Arden Hills and Ryan Companies US, Inc. broke ground on the first development at Rice Creek Commons on Wednesday. The milestone kicks off the first phase of construction on the historic 427-acre site in Arden Hills, which holds an estimated development value of $1 billion.
The first building will be the new headquarters electronics manufacturer Micro Control Company. Ramsey County purchased the former Twin Cities Army Ammunition Plant in 2013 with a vision to clean up, redevelop and return the property to the economic engine it once was – this time as a nation-leading, climate-forward and equitable community with homes, businesses and retail.
