LILYDALE REGIONAL PARK

Location: St. Paul, Minnesota

Lilydale Regional Park is part of the Mississippi National River and Recreation Area and located on the floodplains of the east bank of the Mississippi River in St. Paul. The site is defined by the Mississippi River to the North and Pickerel Lake below the river bluffs to the South. The 384-acre park includes the 100‐acre Pickerel Lake and an additional 100 acres of wetland and marsh.

This new picnic shelter and support space creates a central social place to Lilydale Regional Park encouraging visitors to hold gatherings and for extended informal uses. It accommodates families, friends, and other groups in the park, provides additional programming space, and helps support recreational trails, fishing and boating, birdwatching, play areas and non‐motorized park access. The folded structural form and irregularly spaced columns support a flexible field of space so that it may be used in a variety of configurations for informal gathering and shared use.
