Tuttle Usage Ideas
We encourage our Southeast Como Community to share what you want to see at the Tuttle School building now that it is no longer needed as a school.

These ideas apply to the entire property at 1042 18th Ave SE plus the parking lot at the northeast corner of 19th Ave SE and Como Ave SE. Items that start with “Include” are intended to be part of an overall development.

What other ideas do you have?
Add your ideas here. Only restriction is that proposals cannot be in competition with Minneapolis Public Schools (MPS), that is, Tuttle cannot become a Charter School. And we would like ideas that are a benefit to the SE Como neighborhood. Ideas should be concrete and specific, not general statements, and 15 words or less.
