Chapter VII <br />RAMSEY STATION AREA DEVELOPMENT POTENTIAL <br />Northstar station area potential for residential, retail, and commercial development is dependent <br />on many factors including location, convenience, and the geographic area served by the station. <br />The amount and type of retail and commercial development that can be supported at each station <br />area will depend on its ability to capitalize on the economic vitality of the geographic area served <br />by the station. An important consideration in retail or commercial development is the station <br />area's convenience for potential customers that are not Northstar riders. <br />RAMSEY STATION <br />Ramsey Station opened November 14, 2012, in The COR development between the intersections <br />of Armstrong Boulevard and Ramsey Boulevard with TH-10, as shown on Map 7-1. Ramsey <br />Station benefits from being located in a planned community that could incorporate the station in <br />a TOD environment. As a result, the City of Ramsey has been successful at attracting higher <br />density mixed -use and transit supportive development in The COR at Ramsey development, <br />which was planned to incorporate the Ramsey Station. This was accomplished, in part, by <br />establishing a development plan and consolidating property ownership in order to control the <br />form and sequencing of development. Ramsey has set the stage for expanded TOD in The COR. <br />Map 7-1 <br />RAMSEY STATION LOCATION <br />Copyright 2013 McComb Group, Ltd. 02/27/13 <br />The station is adjacent to an 800-stall municipal parking ramp with 350 dedicated commuter <br />parking spaces.
