    City of Duluth 2014 Housing Indicator Report Released: May, 26 2015 Prepared by: Community Development Division 407 City Hall Duluth, MN 55802 Telephone: 218-730-5480 2014 Housing Indicator Report Executive Summary The City of Duluth produces annually the Housing Indicator Report. This report tracks from year to year a core group of datasets from the US Census Bureau, St. Louis County Assessor’s Office, Minnesota Department of Employment and Economic Development, Duluth Area Association of Realtors, and City of Duluth. The report is in its 12th iteration and has tracked Duluth’s Housing Market from the crash in 2008 to the crunch in 2013. The trends in 2014 continue those first highlighted in 2012. Affordability continues to be an issue especially as the rental market and ownership market continue to be tight. New production of units and a high amount of renovation suggest more units in the near future. This report is beneficial to housing developers and providers alike. Homeownership The metrics for homeownership show an improving housing market. The number of home sales and median price are near pre-recession values for the second year in a row. However, the number of newly constructed single-family homes has not fully recovered resulting in the majority of Duluth’s housing stock being built before 1950. Below are the key highlights for homeownership in 2014. The number of foreclosures in Duluth decreased from 189 in 2012 to 156 in 2013 to only 116 in 2014. This is a decrease of 25.6%. The percentage of Homesteaded properties in Duluth remained level at 58.6%.

  • Skyline Parkway Corridor Management Plan
    June 2015 Update SKYLINE PARKWAY CORRIDOR MANAGEMENT PLAN City of Duluth Department of Planning & Development in conjunction with LHB Engineers & Architects Arrowhead Regional Development Commission Mary Means & Associates Updated – May 2015 Patrick Nunnally This corridor management plan has been prepared with funding from the State Scenic Byways Program, Minnesota Department of Transportation, and the City of Duluth, Department of Planning & Development "Where in all this wide world could I find such a view as this?” Samuel F. Snively It has been 100 years since Samuel Snively donated the road he built, with its ten wooden bridges crossing Amity Creek, to the Duluth Park Board in order to establish the eastern end of what was to become Duluth's famed boulevard parkway system. During the ensuing century, this remarkable thoroughfare has had many names – Duluth's Highland Boulevard, Terrace Parkway, Rogers Boulevard, Skyline Drive, Snively Boulevard and, officially, Skyline Parkway – yet its essential nature has remained unchanged: "A drive that is the pride of our city, and one that for its picturesque and varied scenery, is second top none in the world ..." (1st Annual Report of the Board of Park Commissioners, 1891). From its inception, the Parkway has formed the common thread which has bound this community together, creating the 'backbone' of the city's expansive park system. Its 46 miles of road range from semi-wilderness to urban in context, and its alignment, following the geography which defines Duluth, provides a unique perspective on what one early twentieth century observer referred to as this "God-graded town". Because Skyline Parkway grew with Duluth, its history – and the physical characteristics which reflect this history – must be preserved.
