Project Updates

The City of Brooklyn Center is preparing for the reconstruction of the Orchard Lane North area, which extends from Unity Avenue to Perry Avenue and from Interstate 694 to 65th Avenue. The project area includes approximately 9,230 linear feet of local streets, 188 low-density residential properties, and Orchard Lane Park.

The project is intended to extend the life of neighborhood streets, replace aging infrastructure where needed, and improve overall roadway and utility conditions in the area.
