4 REASONS TO LIVE WORK AND PLAY
RECREATION
Maple Grove takes pride in having over 50 parks and over 55 miles of scenic trails. Central Park, located in the heart of downtown Maple Grove, features a skate loop, interactive fountain, playground, sport courts, and more. Further north, Fernbrook Fields is a state-of-the-art athletic complex that features four full-size synthetic turf fields. The 19-acre site is perfect for athletic tournaments and community events. To continue to successfully serve a growing and diversifying population, the city is moving forward with an investment plan to update and expand the Community Center to support a wider range of programs and activities.
MEDICAL TECH INDUSTRY
Home to several industry leaders and start-ups in medical device, bioscience, pharmaceuticals, and support services, Maple Grove is serious about seeing its health technology industry succeed. It is an epicenter of health technology with over 38 med-tech companies and home to five of the top 25 Minnesota medical technology companies.
Maple Grove is moving forward with the Minnesota Health Village development, adjacent to Maple Grove Hospital. This 100-acre space is envisioned to someday be home to an array of medical office space and medical technology businesses. With its location at the intersection of three major interstates, and the new Highway 610 corridor, Maple Grove is poised for continued growth in healthcare.
RETAIL/ENTERTAINMENT
Maple Grove has made its mark with a wide range of retail destinations, and experience driven opportunities are being implemented to enrich the retail assets. Maple Grove is home to the Arbor Lakes district which continues its evolution as a premier shopping and entertainment center. In addition, Main Street is slated for a makeover with improvements to the roadway, crosswalks, sidewalks, landscaping, and benches as well as opportunities for public art.
Citizens will continue to see enhancements and amenities throughout Maple Grove, particularly as the northwest part of the city continues to develop.
HOUSING
The last decade has seen tremendous growth in housing. From rentals and single-family dwellings, to townhomes and senior living facilities, the city provides a wide range of options to accommodate the needs of all age groups and family structures. Housing options in close proximity to parks and trails factor into the residential development process and overall appeal.
