Welcome to the new heart of St Paul’s east side.
Ground broke on the new Plaza del Sol in early 2024, and when work is done, our community will have a cutting-edge business incubator, community event center, offices and more.
Reserve your space in St Paul’s newest Latino-focused market hall. Leasing information coming soon! For inquiries, please contact info@ledcmn.org.
If you’ve driven past Plaza del Sol recently, you might be wondering about what’s going on. While the outside hasn’t seen much work yet, crews have been busy. If you take a peek inside, you’ll see that interior demolition is well under way – now you can see all the way back to where the commercial kitchen workstations will be. What you don’t see in the image is the work that’s taking place to reinforce the second floor. Although the structure is in good shape, some additional supports are needed to be able to hold events with more than 350 people at a time on the second floor.
Kitty-corner from Plaza del Sol, another vintage beauty on Payne Avenue is getting a makeover. The three-story edifice, which was built in 1889, is currently getting a fresh coat of paint. The corner of Payne and Jenks, where Plaza del Sol is located, has always been a lively commercial node, and little by little we’re setting the stage for another century of success.
We are all set to begin the next phase of construction on Plaza del Sol! This project is poised to further transform Payne Avenue and serve our community for years to come. Watch this report from WCCO news on how Payne is quietly becoming a commercial force in St Paul.
