Kraus-Anderson began demolition work earlier this year on its own Southtown Shopping Center. Although this does represent a turning point for this crucial corner of the Twin Cities, most of the shops at Southtown are unaffected by the work and will remain open. Plans for what will replace the two razed big-box spaces are still unknown (even to this corporate archivist), but the city of Bloomington has been nudging for more varied land uses that blend Southtown into the community. If this theme carries the day, it will be, perhaps to a surprising extent, a return to the early days of Southtown. Built in 1960, before many (or any) of the community centers, libraries, and other public spaces that now dot Bloomington existed, Southtown was a center of community life in its early days. Kraus-Anderson’s archives are full of community events that took place in the shopping center’s first few decades. This video shows a 1967 parade. #TBT

To quote KA's latest Rising Young Professional honoree, Megan Geiser, "One quote that doesn’t really sit right with me is ‘If they don’t save you a seat at the table, bring your own chair.’ As leaders, we should make a point to ensure there are seats for everyone. You miss out on really unique and interesting perspectives if you don’t.” WOW! Megan, you are an amazing leader, we are so excited to see you grow and be a positive beacon for our industry, our office and our community! https://www.krausanderson.com/blog/megan-geiser-named-a-rising-young-professional-of-the- Congratulations to all who were nominated! #RisingYoungProfessional #KAWisconsin #recognition

When Minneapolis Firefighter Jake LaFerriere survived career-ending burn injuries in 2010, he felt little hope for his future.

According to NAWIC National - U.S.A., women still only make up about 10% of the construction industry workforce. Outreach and opportunity are critical in building a more diverse workforce and addressing the industry’s ongoing labor shortage. The Association of Women Contractors (AWC) works to empower women business owners and service providers in construction. In the latest episode of KA’s Build Me Up #podcast, AWC scholarship recipient Eva Sharot, along with AWC Executive Director Barb Lau and KA Project Manager Mark Oelrich, discuss AWC and how they are creating opportunities for young women in construction.
