For the first time in history, the Minnesota State Patrol will own a building for operations—and it will be located in Roseville.

The State of Minnesota purchased the property for $13.4 million, located on the 1500 block of Highway 36, on June 30, 2025.

Three parcels of land were part of the purchase, outlined here in red. The building labeled 1515 is Target. The property labeled with a zero is currently a parking lot. | Image courtesy of Roseville Community Development

This is the building behind the Roseville Target, which was previously used by the Minnesota Department of Education until 2022. The signage for National American University is still on one of the buildings. Both buildings have been vacant for at least seven years, according to Janice Gundlach, Roseville's community development manager.
