HATCHERY ROW GROUNDBREAKING IS SCHEDULED
After nearly six years of work, the Hatchery Row Development project is now becoming a reality. Hatchery Row is located on Henning Street, just west of Highway 78 and adjacent to Battle Lake’s beautiful downtown area. It’s the perfect area for new development. Demolition and clean-up have been completed with a beautiful site available for development. Good neighbors Properties from Alexandria are the developers and have come up with a beautiful design for the area. They feel the final design fits well with the character of both the former Hatchery buildings and the downtown Battle Lake area. The final floor plan will feature 15 -20 apartments and 12,000 – 15,000 square feet of commercial space. The official groundbreaking will be Monday, August 15th at 9:00 a.m. at the site on Henning Street. Construction will start at the end of August.
With the help of several grants from MN Department of Employment and Economic Development (DEED), Otter Tail County Community Development Agency, and USDA Rural Development, this project was able to move forward. Additional expenses not covered through the grants will be recovered through Tax Increment Financing. If you would like more information, please contact Val Martin at Battle Lake City Hall.
