Kraus-Anderson Completes Trails, Landscape Rehab at Split Rock Lighthouse in Minnesota

Kristin Harlow — Wed, 17 Dec 2025 14:10:33 +0000

TWO HARBORS, MINN. — Kraus-Anderson has completed a trails and landscape renovation at Split Rock Lighthouse in Two Harbors along Lake Superior. Designed by Quinn Evans, the project returns circulation patterns to their historic locations with modifications for accessibility needs of the site, including a new ADA ramp, a precast boardwalk that follows the path of the original tramway, structural components and new fencing. The site was designated as a National Historic Landmark in 2011. The Minnesota Historical Society directed archeological efforts. The lighthouse remained open to the public during the majority of construction, which began in May. Split Rock Light Station was completed in 1910, and for half a century it helped freighters carry freshly mined ore from Minnesota’s Iron Range. The State of Minnesota obtained the historic and scenic landmark in 1971 and transferred administrative responsibility for the 25-acre Split Rock Lighthouse historic site to the Minnesota Historical Society in 1976. The historic core has been restored to its early 1920s appearance. The project was made possible by the people of Minnesota through an appropriation made by the Minnesota Legislature and approved by the governor.

Midwest Office Markets Face Mounting Pressure

Kristin Harlow — Thu, 20 Nov 2025 13:30:00 +0000

By David Goldfisher, The Henley Group Secondary and tertiary office markets across the Midwest, including Chicago, Minneapolis, Madison, Milwaukee, Cleveland, Cincinnati, Columbus and St. Louis, are facing mounting pressure. While each city has its own challenges, a common theme is clear — vacancies remain high and liquidity is thin. Tenant shuffling One of the defining dynamics today is tenant reshuffling rather than net growth. As leases expire, employers frequently move from one building to another, seeking modernized space and stronger amenities. Renovating in place is disruptive and costly, while relocating allows businesses to upgrade with minimal operational downtime. This “musical chairs” effect highlights a deeper structural issue. There are only so many large anchor tenants in Midwest cities and few new entrants are seeking major blocks of space. There is more repositioning for existing tenants than attracting new ones. Flight to quality Landlords and developers are competing to deliver amenities that encourage office attendance and support talent retention. Modernized lobbies, tenant lounges and flexible collaboration areas have become standard expectations. Hines’ upgrades at Chicago’s 333 West Wacker Drive and 601W Cos.’ reinvestment in the Old Post Office demonstrate the scale of investment required. But not all landlords can compete. With…
