2019 Minneapolis BLEND Awards Celebration at the Fulton Brewery

For the seventh straight year, the BLEND Awards Ceremony was held at Fulton Brewery.  This year, we celebrated and awarded projects in Minneapolis AND St. Paul in one grand ceremony.  It was a fun night honoring the great work of architects & builders in both cities!

The keynote speaker was Kate Solomonson, from University of Minnesota's Department of Architecture.  She shared how Minneapolis defined its ideal residential neighborhoods in the early 20th century, during the decades leading up to the adoption of zoning in the mid 1920.  It was a wonderful glimpse in how our city's early development shaped our current neighborhoods.  

​Check out the slideshow for a glimpse of the fun.

​Congratulations to the recipients of BLEND Awards and thanks to our 2019 sponsors!
