Members invited to Rondo Plaza's "every brick counts" event
SPAAR members are invited to attend the second annual ceremony to install brick pavers at the Rondo Commemorative Plaza on October 16, 2019, from 4–6pm. The Plaza’s History Walk is a core element of the commemorative plaza, the nation’s first public memorial dedicated to a community destroyed by adverse governmental action, which in Saint Paul was the construction of I-94 through the Rondo Corridor in the late 1950s and 60s.

A short program will feature remarks by Mayor Melvin Carter, III; Margaret Kelliher, State of Minnesota Commissioner of Transportation; Dai Thao, Ward 1 Councilperson; Toni Carter, District 4 Ramsey County Commissioner; Rena Moran, District 65A, MN House of Representatives; and Marvin Roger Anderson, project director of the Rondo Commemorative Plaza.

The October 16 event takes place at 820 Concordia Avenue in St. Paul. SPAAR and its REALTORS® Charitable Foundation have provided more than $100,000 in grants to Rondo for its work to revitalize the community and to remember and educate about the history of Rondo.
