The event features a challenging and innovative miniature golf course featuring holes designed and built by various local architects, designers and contractors. The Skyway Open is a miniature golf experience unlike any you’ve seen before. The holes range from using the traditional golf ball and putter to more outside-the-box, unconventional challenges that in years past have resembled pool, pinball and other varying tasks. This year’s course will feature 17 holes—10 new and seven classics—that will be unveiled the day of the event. The event runs 12-9 pm on Friday, 10 am-6 pm on Saturday and 12-4 pm on Sunday. Sign-up is available on SkywayOpen.org/Play as well as on-site, and varying tee time options for adults and children are available. All ages and skill levels are encouraged to register. Participants check-in and tee off at Minneapolis City Center’s (40 S. 7th St.) first floor and will weave through 50th South 6th Street, RBC Plaza, Gaviidae Common and IDS Center to complete the course. Friday golfers are invited to stop by the 19th Hole Celebration at Union’s REV Ultra Lounge (731 Hennepin Avenue). The 19th Hole begins at 7 pm and will feature the Skyway Open awards presentation along with complimentary food and beverages. “Part of our organization’s 2025 Plan goal is to create a consistently compelling downtown experience year- round, and that means producing fun events for all ages and abilities throughout the year,” said Leah Wong, Vice President of Events and Marketing, Minneapolis Downtown Council. “The Skyway Open not only pays tribute to our state’s love of golf during the winter, but it also partners community organizations together for a fun outing that everyone from business colleagues to families can enjoy.” The 10th Annual Skyway Open is made possible by Birdie Sponsors Fish & Richardson, Jimmy John’s, Morrie’s Cadillac and Shorenstein Properties. Designers developing new holes for this year’s Skyway Open golf tournament include BKV Group, HGA, Otogawa-Anschel Design+Build, Gensler & Associates + Gardner Builders, Cuningham Group, RSP Architects + Kraus-Anderson, Wilkus Architects + Thomas Printworks, Alliiance, RBC Plaza: KBS + Cushman & Wakefield | Northmarq + Shea + Unispace, and Coen + Partners + Landscape Renovations. Returning holes include BKV Group’s ‘Pinball’, HGA’s ‘4 Squares’, HGA’s ‘Putt-Putt’, Andrea Christenson – Cushman & Wakefield + Smart Associates + Ryan Company Inc.’s ‘IDS Replica’, Leo A Daly’s ‘Foshay’, Otogowa Anschel Design + Build’s ‘Shoot for the Moon’, and Cuningham Group’s ‘City of Lakes’. Once again this year, a panel of industry experts including the American Institute of Architects Minnesota will judge and present awards for Top Golf Hole Design, Most Challenging Golf Hole and People’s Choice Golf Hole. Participants will also have the chance to be chosen as Best Dressed Players group. This year’s Skyway Open is produced by the Minneapolis Downtown Council and co-produced by Sheba Productions. It coincides with the Intersections: The Downtown 2025 Plan both through producing an engaging downtown experience as well as proceeds going toward the Ending Street Homelessness Committee.

Minneapolis, MN 55455 Office: 612-625-5345 Fax: 612-624-6345 January 2019 This University of Minnesota Fiscal Year Lease Report documents the University's real estate leasing activity during Fiscal Year 2018 (July 1, 2017 – June 30, 2018). Approximately 4,177 leases and easements involving the University as landlord or tenant, including the PUF leases, were in existence during the fiscal year and are included in this report. During Fiscal Year 2018, the total cost of 388 long-term leases, providing for the University’s use of 800,356 square feet (SF) of building space plus numerous apartments which are not measured, and 2,618 acres of land, air-rights and subsurface rights, plus 493 short-term use agreements, was approximately $25.8 million. This compares to 376 long-term leases and 425 short- term use agreements in existence during Fiscal Year 2017 covering 772,479 SF and 2,299 acres at an approximate total cost of $20.3 million. The University’s total leased building space in Fiscal Year 2018 increased by 27,877 SF and the land acreage leased increased by 319 acres. These increases were largely attributable to the relocation of the CFANS Sand Plain Research Farm in Becker, MN which consisted of a lease for 15,000 SF of office/warehouse space for temporary operations while new facilities are being constructed at a new leased parcel of land consisting of 416.5 acres.
