Minneapolis Sculpture Garden

Location: Minneapolis, Minnesota

Project Overview:

EDI-Dolejs served as Engineer of Record for the renovation of the Minneapolis Sculpture Garden, providing electrical, lighting, security, communications, and supporting infrastructure design throughout the site. The improvements were developed to enhance the visitor experience, support artwork and events, improve security, and provide flexible infrastructure for future park needs.

Our work included pedestrian and artwork lighting, site-wide power distribution, security cameras and perimeter detection, Wi-Fi and fiber-optic communications, and power and controls for a rainwater collection and irrigation system. Additional infrastructure supports maintenance operations, vendors, temporary events, future art exhibits, and planned pedestrian bridge lighting.
