Business & Industry in Anoka County

A

noka County sits on the banks of the beautiful Mississippi River. Close to the core cities, the county offers incredibly

affordable real estate. Taxes are low and business incentives are high. There are booming businesses while still maintaining beautiful woodlands and vast open acres with parks, lakes and creeks.

Lexington Manufacturing

Business and Industry he area’s first industry was logging. After building a dam on the Rum River in 1853, pioneers established sawmills, flour mills and factories. Today, approximately 15,000 acres of rich peat soil produce a wide variety of vegetables and more sod than any other county in the nation. The products are sold throughout the U.S. and Canada, with an estimated value of $30 million per year for the area’s economy.

However, the single biggest contributor to Anoka County’s economy is manufacturing.

Mercy Hospital, Coon Rapids

Healthcare

R

anked as the healthiest state in America as stated in the 16th Edition of the Health Care State Ranking by CQ Press, the county of Anoka offers two hospitals with full service emergency services

and special health care programs.

Mercy Hospital Mercy Hospital, located in Coon Rapids, is a 271-bed non-profit hospital that serves the northern Minneapolis-St. Paul metropolitan area. The hospital responds to a wide range of health needs with specialty services including behavioral health services, cancer care, heart and vascular services, orthopedics, neurosciences, and women’s and children’s services.

In 1963, the Anoka Community Hospital Association agreed to build a 100-bed hospital located on the border of Coon Rapids and Anoka. Later that year, 2000 volunteers launched a $600,000 fund drive, collecting

donations door-to-door for the hospital’s construction. Their efforts were successful and today Mercy Hospital serves the health care needs of residents living in more than 25 north metro cities and towns, including Maple Grove, Osseo, Anoka, Coon Rapids, Elk River and Rogers, just to name a few.

Mercy Hospital will have a new addition to their hospital in November of 2013. The new 120,000 square-foot, four-story medical office building will be located across the street from the hospital and will be conveniently connected by a skyway over Coon Rapids Boulevard. The building will house Virginia Piper Cancer

Institute-Mercy Hospital, specialty care, outpatient surgery services and obstetrics/ women’s care. Features will include a patient drop-off entrance, ample parking, hands-free entrances, extra-wide corridors, elevators and suite entrances. Plans for the construction support the latest medical technology and incorporate environmentally friendly materials and systems.

By Air Minneapolis-St. Paul International Airport (MSP) is located 25 minutes south of Anoka County. Passengers using MSP have access to flights for all major U.S. cities, as well as most international destinations. The Anoka County Airport serves the needs of hobbyist pilots as well as corporate small jets.

NorthStar Commuter Rail Northstar started their engines in November of 2009. Becoming part of Metro Transit not only allowed Northstar to fulfill the travel needs of local riders but it also created a safe and easy

way for riders to get from multiple places in the Twin Cities region. Northstar trains currently run from Big Lake to downtown Minneapolis.

This Commuter Rail provides an important link to a broader transit network in the metro area and Central Minnesota.

There are currently 18 passenger cars and 5 locomotives. The length of total route from Big Lake to Minneapolis is 40 miles. The amount of time estimated to travel the entire route is 50 minutes. By connecting Northstar commuter rail and Hiawatha light-rail lines, this commuter rail has lengthened the transit

corridor to approximately 52 miles. There are 7 Northstar stations total. The locations include: Big Lake, Ramsey, Elk River, Anoka, Coon Rapids-Riverdale, Fridley and Target Field. The maximum speed of Northstar trains is 79 mph.

This commuter rail provides 3 roundtrips each weekend day. Northstar is also available during special events when needed. Each passenger car can seat 139-145 with additional space for standing available.

By Light Rail When completed, Minnesota’s light-rail transit system will consist of a network of light rail, commuter rail and transit corridors that will better serve future economic growth and expand travel options for the metro area commuters and visitors alike.

By Rail Amtrak passenger service to and from the Twin Cities is available from the Amtrak station in St. Paul.
