Tuesday night, Randy Eggenberger, chairman of the National Eagle Center s board of directors, and Meg Gammage-Tucker, CEO of the eagle center, updated the Wabasha City Council on the plans and a gave timeline for the renovation and expansion. Construction on the interior of several building will happen during the winter of 2021-2022, followed by outdoor projects beginning in spring 2022 that should be completed by later that fall. We went back to state and said if we can do phase I, can we get some of the funds, Gammage-Tucker said. We have access to $4 million of the $8 million. We’re committing to $1.8 million, but that all gets phase I done. We renovate (two of the four buildings on) Main Street, we expand the center, we have large-vessel dockage, and upgrade the public space.
