Site Information


Region- Upper Midwest
City-Duluth, MN

Site- A portion of the Duluth Entertainment Convention Center (DECC) parking lot



This site (orange) was chosen because of its location and convenience to a cultural entertainment and tourist center in Duluth. First, it has local to the BNSF right-of-way, which is important for a high speed rail line. Along with that, it is near the Historic Depot (in purple.) With emphasis towards transportation, it was important and appropriate to be able to link to the skywalk which ends in the DECC.


Landmarks and tourist attractions are numerous. Adjacent to the site are: Bayfront Park, Great Lakes Aquarium, The Depot, William Irvin Ship. Other major local attractions include: the Aerial Lift Bridge, Canal Park, Grandma’s Saloon and grill, and Enger Tower to name a few.
