2023 Phased In Approach<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Development in smaller cities is a practical way to provide stable, and sustainably growing communities that provide “hub” services to regional populations radiating outward.\u00a0 Prairie du Chien is a great example of the opportunity, and need, for affordable, quality housing in the City–to support the attraction and retention of talent in the City itself, but serving the larger rural community as well.<\/p>\n

A phased in approach is necessary in this case–but with an overall plan in mind.<\/p>\n

Phase 1<\/strong> was the highly successful renovation of the former St Mary’s building into the current Lawler Lofts–providing 42 appealing units to the community of workforce housing.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

\"Prairie<\/p>\n

In 2023, Phase 2 plans will tackle the Boiler Building-<\/strong>-renovating this brick building into 6 housing units, available for purchase.\u00a0 This will be the anchor building for future expansion on the property.<\/p>\n

Phase 3<\/strong> plans will further expand the growing need for housing in the area, with the potential for another 18 units on site.<\/p>\n

Q & A about the property: Interview with Ted Pennekamp March 2022\u00a0<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Development of Wyalusing Commons\u2013Phase 1, 2, 3<\/b><\/span><\/em><\/p>\n

What is the zoning for the parcel?<\/b><\/p>\n

The zoning for the entire parcel is Multi Family and has been for many years. In the 1880s, St Mary\u2019s was operating at the site with a school and housing. \u00a0 In 1969, Clinicare Corp. opened its doors and operated as housing until RVI became owner in 2014.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

Will the housing in your plan be condos, apartment building(s), single family houses, or a combination?<\/b><\/p>\n

Our revised plan(s) show alternate ways of approaching development, and in all cases that involves the smallest developed footprint possible, balancing the need for affordable middle class housing, green space, and preservation areas, with the best outcome for aesthetics and cohesiveness on the site.\u00a0 Our goal continues to be a good neighbor and steward for the Wyalusing Commons site within the community of Prairie du Chien, while creating affordable middle class housing.<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

What services and types of housing are you proposing?<\/b><\/p>\n

Our goals are as follows:<\/span><\/p>\n

PHASE 1\u2013(Completed):<\/b>\u00a0 Provide a strategy for saving the historic Lawler Lofts building and provide affordable middle class housing for the community of Prairie du Chien by partnering in the plan with Commonwealth Development.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

PHASE 2:<\/b>\u00a0 The Lofts Annex:\u00a0 Provide new construction of attractive apartment buildings that blend with existing buildings in an attractive manner to provide additional affordable middle class housing.\u00a0 Consider dedicated open space to allow for retention of the grotto area and trees,\u00a0 and minimal new disturbance on the upper level, the Southeast corner.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

PHASE 3:<\/b> Provide mixed use housing and professional service space.<\/span><\/p>\n

We do think that providing neighborhood services and space for some\u00a0 professional offices, salons, or a small cafe in a mixed use configuration on the Northwest corner does make sense.\u00a0 However, that is Phase 3.\u00a0 It isn\u2019t just about services and housing however, it is about context, and I think it is important that charging stations are included, walking trails throughout, beautiful open space is provided, and dedicating space to the beautiful trees (and adding new ones over time)\u00a0 in the center of the parcel is important and a goal.\u00a0 We want\u00a0 to continue to shelter the grotto and provide habitat to an abundant\u00a0 gathering site for\u00a0 Monarch butterflies and birds that congregate there.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

The biggest issue is open space–which has rights, and responsibilities, to the owner.\u00a0 We are open to some land donation, but the parcel is zoned multi family and is developable.\u00a0 The idea is to not have an attractive nuisance in the neighborhood, and find ways to protect what we do transfer into open space, to a place that remains free from further development.<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

So, who will own it, use it, and maintain it, protect it, pay taxes, and insure it is still up for discussion.\u00a0<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

I don\u2019t know what the requirements of the Historic District are, the commission, the ordinance, etc. Was a new ordinance passed regarding this type of property?<\/b><\/p>\n

I reached out to City staff last fall to discuss in a collaborative fashion, how the property could best be developed.\u00a0 Perhaps given COV-19 issues, I did not hear back in 2021.\u00a0 I was informed on February 13th that a Historic District had been overlaid onto our property\u2013without prior notice–which was concerning.\u00a0 I did attend the Historic Commission meeting on March 16th to gain further information regarding the ordinance and to express the desire to collaboratively find a solution for the property.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

In general, I am supportive of guidance that will help the City develop in positive ways, which helps land owners do the right thing for the community’s shared enjoyment and economic prosperity, but I also believe that development is important to the City to keep taxes in check as much as possible, and to provide much needed housing.\u00a0<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

This is a very important site to us, and has been for many years to many generations and cultures..\u00a0 So far, I am proud of what River to Valley Initiatives (RVI) was able to do to prevent the loss of the historic building, and what is now Lawler Lofts, and our efforts to have it placed on the Historic Register with an adaptive reuse strategy.\u00a0 I hope acknowledgement of native persons to the area will be made, as well as other historical time markers.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

What was the alternative to RVI\u2019s ownership?<\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

What is crucial to remember is that the very real alternative for the entire site was demolition, or decay and vandalism of an empty building until it was demolished.\u00a0 All this would have been an additional burden to the City, and the eventual sale does not necessarily mean an attractive neighborhood would have been built. Clinicare did not want that sad ending, and neither did RVI. \u00a0 Long ago, prior to St. Mary\u2019s,\u00a0 it was originally intended for single family housing. St Mary\u2019s began the transition to a multi family site, then Clinicare, and it still makes sense as multi family today.\u00a0 Maintenance costs for such a large site are significant. In my worst dreams,\u00a0 I can also envision that the trees would have likely been harvested, the buildings removed, and who knows what would have occurred on the site overall.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

None of this happened, of course, but even without a Historic Commission, we cared enough to work on this particular project to work on Phase 1, and many ideas for the remaining areas are in discussion.\u00a0 We want to develop appropriately. \u00a0 We had no control of course, when across the Main Street, well within view\u00a0 near the river,\u00a0 the RR and frac sand station was allowed and in place, which is unfortunate from a community viewshed standpoint so near downtown and the center part of the City.\u00a0 We believe our buildings will be assets and attractive to the community.<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

What is the reasoning for developing it at all?<\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/i>First of all, there are holding costs and ongoing costs to land ownership that accumulate and are ongoing for any owner.\u00a0 There are liabilities to allowing access from the general public on someone\u2019s private land, and for many years, permission by St Mary\u2019s, I assume, and Clinicare, and throughout our ownership, was granted for limited access on the property.\u00a0 To do otherwise invites the issue of becoming \u201can attractive nuisance\u201d, so we have been careful in granting access.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

What does RVI do?<\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

Our business is that of in-fill development for rural communities for the benefit of communities, and that is challenging work.\u00a0 Prairie du Chien has already benefited from that work over the years, in addition to Lawler Lofts. \u00a0 It is also important to remember that Clinicare, who had occupied the site since 1969, was a good neighbor, and wanted to work with us to save the building and grounds.\u00a0 Commonwealth Development, who we brought to the project, did a fantastic job as well, and all units were immediately occupied upon completion in 2018, and have been so since.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

That preservation and adaptive re-use effort has resulted in not only preserving a monumental 80,000sf historic building, thereby contributing to the historic nature in Prairie du Chien, it also meant a development\u00a0 investment value of over $13 million into the City at that time..<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

What potential investment into the City remains for this land?\u00a0<\/b><\/p>\n

I expect Phase 2 will be just under $10 million, and Phase 3 about $6 million in development costs.\u00a0 Overall, a huge input in value to the community, not only in taxes, but also attractive housing.<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n



<\/p>\n

How will you incorporate some community access land? As a possible park?<\/b><\/p>\n

I think the best developments incorporate green space, naturalized (though managed) areas for habitat for pollinators, and planting trees to help incorporate old, and new buildings to soften the hard edges of the built structure and any parking.<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

As for a park, I don\u2019t think we need more playground equipment as much as\u00a0 a bit more open space to play and to enjoy.\u00a0 Threading the proverbial needle to balance costs, ongoing management, land ownership rights and responsibilities, community enjoyment ,and allowing for an appreciation of the full picture of history and our natural environment is important to truly do a great job when developing any neighborhood.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

My private sector career has been about developing and approving appropriate design and architectural guidance and neighborhood development, so I feel confident that we can develop a beautiful space with beautiful appropriately designed buildings that adhere to what guidelines the Historic Commission would like to see.\u00a0 There is also a cost component in this very volatile building market, but we think it is doable.<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

When the property sells, what would the new owner have to do regarding their plans and the Native American Mounds? Where are the Native American Mounds on the property?<\/b><\/p>\n

I am not aware of \u201cmounds\u201d per se left on the former Fort Crawford site, but I am aware of the State of Wisconsin\u2019s historic overlay on the upper level Southeast corner of the property, which has to do with some foundations still in place, and the potential for a burial area during that time period of the Fort, specifically most likely near a tree on the upper area\u2013but that is not for sure, even at\u00a0 this point.\u00a0 In general,\u00a0 I would prefer that this upper area not be disturbed further\u2013it was significantly disturbed in the 1930s I believe, and also when the Beaumont Ave improvements were done.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

I think the best option to achieve the goals I have stated is to work collaboratively with all parties to do our best, and finalize the sale, which is in process..\u00a0 2020 and 2021 slowed this all down, but at this point we are preparing for sale and development of Phase 2, and I hope to have more input from the Planning Commission as well to finalize the layout so we can proceed with necessary development materials for final approval.\u00a0 I am confident that we can meet the specified standards of buildings currently outlined by the\u00a0 Historic Commission regarding the structural aesthetics..\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

The State provides for development, but with supervision by an organization such as the Mississippi Valley Archaeology Center.\u00a0 They have been involved in this site for decades. That process was done when the Lawler Lofts garages were built, (nothing was found to my knowledge).\u00a0 This process also would be done when the foundations to former (removed above ground already) Clinicare garages and possibly the former\u00a0 tennis court would be removed. We have allowed basketball court usage on that court, and it would be great if there was some way to continue that. \u00a0 In conversation with the Historic Commission on the 16th, it was acknowledged that these (garages and Tennis Court) areas were already significantly compromised, so there was not much opposition to development on those formerly already disturbed sites opposite the new garages.\u00a0 That is why we show this possibility in CONCEPT B..<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

The balance of the land is not considered an important Historic site by the state, and does not require excavation supervision by organizations such as the Mississippi Valley Archaeology Commission. That said, I think it is important to understand the impact of Fort Crawford on the Native American population as well.\u00a0 It is my hope that developing sensitively going forward will help in that end, and more site markers will tell that full story of long ago, and also recent history in preservation.<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

I believe the Monarch Gardens area preservation, along with minimal disturbance on the Southeast corner will be a step in the right direction.<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

How much is RVI asking for the property?<\/b><\/p>\n

We need to finalize our layout.\u00a0 The entire parcel is appraised between $800K to around $1.2 million.\u00a0 Donated green space significantly reduces that calculation, so that is not a sure thing at this point and further discussion and thought is needed at this time.<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n


Could the property be possibly sold in parts, to different owners, rather than all at once?<\/b><\/p>\n

\u00a0There are now 4 lots established, each with benefits and features that are unique to various owners.<\/i><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

Is RVI a non-profit?<\/b><\/p>\n

RVI is a non-profit.<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Will part of the property be preserved? Some parts are nice looking. I suppose that will be up to the new owner(s).<\/b><\/p>\n

I hope there will be a way to preserve open space, and that will come down to who ultimately will manage and own it in the way intended.\u00a0 We need conversation on this with the City to proceed\u2013because any donated land will need to be donated to an entity that can manage it properly.<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/b><\/p>\n

We have two conceptual drawings that I believe will help visualize the potential.\u00a0 These are not final, but given a sense of size and location, along with potential benefits.<\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

\"\"CONCEPT A: <\/i><\/b>\u00a0indicates buildings built on the Southwest corner of the property, down the slope, to minimize site line intrusion, and open up the view to the main building of the historic Lawler Lofts.\u00a0 This allows for a large undeveloped Southeast area, and expanded grassy area adjacent to the Monarch Gardens.\u00a0<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

\"\"CONCEPT B:<\/i><\/b> indicates building down the slope and on the former garages (already disturbed land) a<\/em>nd tennis court, and down the slope.\u00a0 \u00a0This provides for a continuous grassy area on the south of the property. Again, the next steps for the boiler building are in question.\u00a0 It could be adapted for housing or other purposes, torn down and something else rebuilt on site, etc.\u00a0 \u00a0<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

We revised original concepts with feedback we have obtained so far. We have maintained access to Beaumont on the south end, essentially where a driveway is already in place,\u00a0 and would only require resurfacing, not disturbance.\u00a0 <\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

Each of these drawings depict minimal view impact from Beaumont Ave, as the slope comes into play.\u00a0 Concept B opens up the view on the south, Concept A opens up the view of the historic Lawler Lofts and greens spaces.\u00a0 <\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

We could allow for non disturbance of the grassy areas where the State indicates Historical prominence, and allow for the preservation of the Monarch garden area along with potential community access and open space. I think these plans address concerns about aesthetics, views for the majority of community members, access, preservation, environmental sensitivity, and housing.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

My main point is that the preservation of long ago, both the story, and the built environment, is constantly changing and needs to adapt via preservation efforts (rebuilding at times, adaptive reuse, and new construction) and <\/i>employing those strategies and paying attention to attractive detail that blends.\u00a0 This is tough:\u00a0 Do we “recreate” what an old fort looked like?\u00a0 Do we insist on another giant stone building?\u00a0 Do we work from the historic look of the boiler building?\u00a0 OR, in my view, preferable, do we find a way to reference with respect the past, but embrace the future–which includes education about the past and all its facets for a site,\u00a0as well as providing a way to save precious natural areas?\u00a0 All this results in communities with an attractive built\u00a0environment that makes\u00a0living in the present enjoyable.\u00a0\u00a0<\/i><\/span><\/div>\n

Historic Community, Prime Location<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

Prairie du Chien has been for almost two hundred years, a place of starting anew, forging ahead, evolving, and changing with the times.\u00a0 Stunningly prime location featuring eight plus acres facing west, overlooking the Mighty\u00a0 Mississippi provide a regional and local opportunity.\u00a0 This exciting location can be a notable first step in the next chapter for small city development in the heart of the Driftless Region’s Midwest.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

For qualified developers and investors in the properties’ parceled or planned development, there are public\/private partnership opportunities. Depending on what the specific plan is for the acreage–strategies can offset development costs to achieve shared desired results.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
