Highland Bridge, a 122-acre mixed-use master development in Saint Paul, MN, has received the 2025 Project Excellence Award from the Water Environment Federation for its green stormwater infrastructure system, marking the first time a project in Minnesota has earned this national recognition. 🌟 The award celebrates forward-thinking infrastructure that addresses climate change, improves water quality and serves as a national model for sustainable redevelopment in growing urban areas. As Highland Bridge's master developer, we’ve helped transform the former Ford assembly plant into a vibrant, sustainable neighborhood. The stormwater system treats approximately 64 million gallons of rainwater annually, protects the Mississippi River from sediment and phosphorus, and integrates public spaces, trails and parks that help build a resilient, connected community. This recognition highlights the power of collaboration and innovative planning in creating lasting value for communities and the environment. A special thank you to our partners Barr Engineering Co., Capitol Region Watershed District, the City of St. Paul and Confluence.

We Build Stories
About us
At Ryan Companies, we believe the value of the buildings we design, develop, finance, manage and construct is about more than dollars and cents – it’s also about the value they bring to the people who use them and the communities that surround them. That’s why we focus first on the “why” so we can give life to your vision and achieve the best possible outcome. As a national leader in commercial real estate services, we know that our customers are as unique as their projects. That’s why, day after day, we’re driven to uncover their stories. To be inspired by what inspires them. To bring the right people to the table so we can collaborate on a deeper, more engaging level. Together, we build something far more profound than the physical presence of a building. We build the backdrops to life’s stories. At Ryan, our values – Safety, Integrity, Respect, Stewardship, Family, Excellence and Fun – define our culture and they shape and ignite the people who join our team. They are more than words in a mission statement, they are the inspiration that guides our decisions and shapes our belief that we offer something no one else can. In the end, your building is better, your experience working with us more enjoyable, your community more vibrant and your project site safer – all because we embrace our values each day.

We are proud to partner with Niron Magnetics, Inc. on the groundbreaking of their new 190,000-square-foot permanent magnet manufacturing facility in Sartell, Minnesota. As the general contractor and architect of record for portions of the building shells, we are honored to help bring this historic project to life. Set to be operational in early 2027, the facility will expand Niron Magnetics’ capacity to produce rare-earth-free permanent magnets—supporting applications from data center cooling pumps and automobile motors to robotics, consumer electronics, defense and more. Beyond advancing innovation and U.S. manufacturing, the project will create over 175 full-time jobs and revitalize the former Verso Paper Mill site, a U.S. designated coal community property. Congratulations to the entire team on this transformative milestone! 👏 Read more: https://lnkd.in/gepb4GvE

We’re always proud to partner with organizations like The Society of St. Vincent de Paul - Phoenix who share our commitment to making a positive impact in the communities where we live and work. 💚
For nearly 30 years, Ryan Companies US, Inc. has stood alongside SVdP, volunteering back when we were just a small kitchen off Jefferson Street to building transformative transitional shelters like Ozanam and De Paul Manors. 💙 This month, we sat down with Chuck Carefoot, President of Ryan’s Southwest Region, and Molly Carson, Executive VP (both pictured here), for a Q & A to reflect on why this partnership has lasted decades. Here’s a glimpse of what Chuck and Molly shared: it’s about more than projects — it’s about people. Read the full article at: https://lnkd.in/g7DsHnM7
