The first chapter, focused on the period in which racial segregation began to characterize the urban landscape, considers the intersection of racial covenants and park development in Minneapolis in the 1910s. The second chapter connects the historical insights from Chapter 1 to contemporary environmental outcomes through an analysis of patterns of urban heat and tree canopy cover relative to the historic geographies of racial covenants and the HOLC redlining maps in Minneapolis, MN. The final chapter considers contemporary green gentrification and the re-entrenchment of patterns of environmental injustice. Together these chapters aim to understand how environmental inequalities were built into the fabric of Minneapolis, addressing key themes related to 1) the role of nature in the construction of racialized space, 2) the legacy effects of racial discrimination and implications for planners, and 3) the role of planners in producing and maintaining environmental injustices.Item Le Bourget Park, Little Falls, MN.(1989) Sand, Peggy; Mierow, BrianItem Minnesota Project Rediscovery, Parks and Open Space: Mora, Minnesota.(Center for Urban and Regional Affairs/Urban Education Center, University of Minnesota, 1977) Stearns, LynnItem Minnesota’s Network of Parks & Trails: An Inventory of Recreation Experience Opportunities in Minnesota: Metro Region Profile(Center for Changing Landscapes, 2010) Davenport, Mae; Schneider, Ingrid E.; Date, Andrea; Filter, LisaItem Minnesota’s Network of Parks & Trails: An Inventory of Recreation Experience Opportunities in Minnesota: Northwest Region Profile(Center for Changing Landscapes, 2010) Davenport, Mae; Schneider, Ingrid; Date, Andrea; Filter, LisaItem Minnesota’s Network of Parks & Trails: An Inventory of Recreation Experience Opportunities in Minnesota: South Region Profile(Center for Changing Landscapes, 2010) Davenport, MaeItem Minnesota’s Network of Parks & Trails: An Inventory of Recreation Experience Opportunities in Minnesota:Northwest Region Profile(Center for Changing Landscapes, 2010) Davenport, MaeItem A Qualitative Study of Washington County Parks: Senior Usage(Resilient Communities Project (RCP), University of Minnesota, 2022) Lee, Alexander; Stekr, Delaney; Surosh, Mahdi; Huber, OliviaThis project was completed as part of a partnership between Washington County and the University of Minnesota’s Resilient Communities Project (https://rcp.umn.edu/).
