Recycling a barn

Team members John Dwyer and Blaine Merker met with representatives from the City of Saint Paul City Manager’s office, Parks & Rec, and architect Paul Ormseth to discuss the possibility of re-using a historic barn at the Farm. While relocating a historic structure poses significant cost, historic and logistical challenges, there may be a possibility to re-use some of the structural members of a barn that might be in the path of development. We will explore including this option in the Master Plan.

What do you think about the possibility of re-using old barn parts? What about re-locating an entire barn?
