Cabins

There, a kitchen and dining area bleed into indoor and outdoor living spaces that have unobstructed views of the city skyline.

While the space is heavily insulated, with strong solar gain, a cast-iron stove from Salamander Stoves provides extra warmth on cool days.

Designed by HGA Architects and Engineers—a firm with offices in eight cities across the country, including Minneapolis—these prefab cabins were designed off-site before being transported to the park and set atop a series of concrete piers.

Considering the abundance of biodiversity, lifting the structure off the ground was an ecological measure as much as a utilitarian one.
