The Lowertown Urban Village Project also included: The River Garden project, Tilsner Housing project (building renovation for artists), Mears Park project (redesigning of the existing park), Galtier Plaza ($105 million mixed use project) and the restoration of St. Paul Union Depot.

The Lowerton Urban Village is an ongoing urban revitalization project affecting the historic center of the city of Saint Paul. A new community was envisioned in the heart of the city where people of every income level, age, and ethnic background could live and work. Through an effective public/private partnership and by involving public agencies, private lenders, foundations, neighborhood organizations, the artist community, business associates and others, the Lowertown Redevelopment Corporation was the catalyst for the revitalization.
