Chain of Lakes Regional Park - Lake Harriet Bandshell Renovation
This project will re-roof, reside, and repaint the Lake Harriet Bandshell, an iconic structure on the shore of Lake Harriet. The bandshell envelope is failing and there is risk of significant water intrusion and irreparable damage. Refurbishing the building envelope will ensure increased longevity of this well-used building.
