Five-Star Restoration Program Descriptions
Lions Levee Park Observation Station
St. Paul Park, MN
Marathon Ashland Petroleum, LLC and a Community Advisory Panel consisting
of City of St. Paul Park, the Lions Club, The Minnesota Conservation Corp
and the Multiple Sclerosis Society has completed a project restoring the
habitat value of a local park. Local Youth Corps have removed buckhorn
and other nuisance vegetation from a community park, and replanted it
with native species. A 12x12 foot viewing platform with views of the Mississippi
River and a trail with sinage explaining the history of the site and all
its vegetations have been constructed. The City has provided the lighting
for the approach sidewalk and parking lot and the Multiple Sclerosis Society
donated funds for the construction of ramps for handicap-access.
