STILLWATER — Multiple parks are in the works to be added to the St. Croix River riverfront that could broaden the city of Stillwater’s connection to the river.

Three businesses are currently participating: The Ambassador, The Den and Keweenaw Brewing Company.

Among the planned projects are new parks north and south of downtown Stillwater.

The segment will extend from Loridans Drive to the southern part of Sandy Springs inside the perimeter, according to the city council.

At its Tuesday, May 21, meeting, the board of commissioners approved a $25,000 contract between the town and Coastal Carolina Construction for the demolition of the pavilion.

Sandy Springs is one step closer to connecting to PATH400, a 5.2-mile multi-use trail project that runs along the spine of Interstate 400.

Changes planned for the Stillwater riverfront could remake the city's connection to the river in ways not seen since the creation of Lowell Park, the city's main riverfront space, more than a century ago. The list of projects under consideration includes: two new riverfront parks, a boat launch, a 300-foot dock, at least two picnic areas, fishing piers, canoe and kayak launch, public bathrooms ...

The St. Clair Region Conservation Authority said its McKeough Dam was in operation.
