George Floyd Square Rebuilds Amid Funding Delays | Minneapolis News

George Floyd Square is getting a major makeover as construction begins to reopen streets while honoring the memorial and gardens. But the future of the adjacent People’s Way site — originally slated for a big community building by Minnesota Agape Movement — hit a snag after city council voted to block it, citing community feedback and concerns over its popularity. Meanwhile, a controversial plan to tax 84 properties for street funding was reversed, forcing the city to scramble for alternatives. With construction set to last until 2027, both the square’s transformation and the People’s Way redevelopment face delays as new funding paths are urgently sought.
