(revisions approved on February 1, 2021)
Page 7, Paragraph B.1.:
1. Completed Projects.
The Historic Chateau Theatre: is located in the “Heart of the City” subdistrict as
described in the Development Plan. In 2015, the DMCC approved the acquisition
of the Chateau Theatre by the City for the purchase price amount of $6,000,000,
of which Mayo Clinic contributed $500,000. The acquisition and renovation of this
10,000 square foot, historically-designated landmark is considered key to the
planning and enhancement of the Heart of the City subdistrict. After construction
of the initial capital improvements, the Chateau re-opened in 2019. The City
selected St. Paul-based Exhibits Development Group to manage and program the
building for the next 3-5 years while future alternatives are being evaluated. Due
to the health risks presented by the COVID-19 pandemic, operation of the Chateau
Theatre temporarily ceased in early 2020.
