    Article about Halcyon House from MCCD

    Minnesota Consortium of Community Developers wrote a nice article about Halcyon House recently. MCCD has been a great resource for all things cooperative related and advise cooperatives in urban and rural areas throughout Minnesota. Fun fact: Minnesota leads the rest of the country in cooperative formation.

    If you’re interested in reading a little more about our formation and development as a cooperative, check it out!

    Parking Downtown Duluth

    Following up from my topic from last month regarding the parking changes downtown, we’ve let the Duluth Parking Commission know how the changes have affected us and are advocating for improved accessibility downtown and longer maximum limits for on-street parking. If anybody would like to give them a call and voice your opinion as well… 😉😉 For those of you who usually opt for 90 or 120 minute sessions, we’re recommending the Muffler Clinic lot located on Michigan St. or the Tech Village lot behind Pizza Luce.  Scan the QR code on their sign to set up your parking. We wish their online payment system was better. We’re happy to help you with it!
