Historic Kern Bridge Goes to Mankato
The Minnesota Department of Transportation (MnDOT) issued a news release detailing the selection site for the historic bow-string arch Kern Bridge in Mankato. Below is the MnDOT information. A steering committee has selected the city of Mankato as the new owner of the historic Kern Bridge. Mankato will receive federal funding (80 percent of cost) to relocate and rehabilitate the historic bow-string arch bridge that traversed the Le Sueur River from 1873 to 2020 in Blue Earth County. Mankato’s winning plan is to place the Kern Bridge less than five miles downstream from the original site over the Blue Earth River, connecting Land of Memories Park to Sibley Park, fulfilling a strong need identified in the Minnesota River State Trail Master Plan as well as other local and regional trail plans.
The Historic Hawai‘i Foundation (HHF) has launched the
Historic Preservation Grants Program to support historic preservation as a mechanism for building community, enhancing Hawaii’s sense of place, and support for improved societal relationships.
Eligible Project: Rehabilitation or restoration construction projects that preserve the character-defining features of a historic building or site are eligible. Projects should demonstrate that local support and investment is in place prior to applying for the preservation grant, and the HHF preservation grant is not the sole source of funds. Following completion of the preservation project, the site or building should be used for a public or community purpose. All projects are required to follow the Secretary of the Interior’s Standards for the Treatment of Historic Properties, and to commit to preserving the historic property for at least 10 years after receiving the funds.
