Ryan Announces Name, Development Partners for St. Paul Ford Site

Ryan Companies on Tuesday announced the new name of its $1.3-billion redevelopment of the 122-acre former Ford site in St. Paul, MN: Highland Bridge. The announcement was made virtually with the release of a groundbreaking video.  

The company also announced two additional housing partners for the redevelopment. Pulte Group will join the project as the lead developer of the rowhomes, and Presbyterian Homes will be the owner and operator of the project’s service-based seniors living components.  

 
“In creating the new vision for the former Ford Site, we paid considerable attention to the core tenets of the master plan, significant input from the community as well as the Highland District Council, City leaders, and of course the legacy that Ford created,” said Tony Barranco, SVP, Ryan Companies.
“We wanted to respect the rich history of the site and honor the heart and soul of Saint Paul.”
