Clear Facility Services can provide office cleaning, commercial cleaning, and janitorial service in Edina, which sits inside our Hennepin County service area, from offices in Bloomington and Fridley. That covers clinic suites along France Avenue, shops and offices at 50th & France, Class A towers at Centennial Lakes, and apartment buildings near Southdale. In each one, patients, customers, clients, and guests decide what they think of the building in the first few rooms they enter, so a cleaning plan should start with those rooms.

 

Where Edina does business, from Southdale to 50th & France

Southdale Center opened in 1956 as the first fully enclosed shopping mall in the country, and Victor Gruen's plan placed it at the center of a larger district with apartments and a medical center. That area is now the Greater Southdale District, which the city calls its largest mixed-use area, including a regional health care complex anchored by Fairview Southdale Hospital. To the north, 50th & France has nearly 175 businesses in Edina and Minneapolis. To the south, Centennial Lakes and the Highway 100 and I-494 business park hold many of the city's larger office buildings.

Waiting rooms and exam suites along France Avenue

The medical buildings around Fairview Southdale Hospital include the Southdale Medical Center complex across West 65th Street, which a 2015 Star Tribune article called the granddaddy of suburban medical complexes in the Twin Cities. In a clinic, the visitor path runs from the entry glass through the waiting room and check-in counter to the patient restrooms and the hallway outside the exam rooms. We can include those spots in your scope and clean after the clinic closes. Exam and procedure rooms call for disinfection with EPA-registered products, used as the label directs. Waiting room carpet needs hot water extraction on a set schedule. Corridors with VCT need a scrub and recoat while the finish holds up, and a full strip and wax anywhere from quarterly to once a year, depending on foot traffic, with quiet areas needing it less often.

Storefronts and upstairs offices at 50th & France and Grandview

50th & France started as a streetcar corner. Gregg's Pharmacy opened there in 1929 and the Edina Cinema in 1934, and the district now has 500,000 square feet of commercial space on the Edina side alone. Grandview adds another 800,000 square feet next to Highway 100. Many tenants here are small, like a boutique or a second-floor accounting office, and the scope can be sized to the space. For a shop, the storefront glass, door push plates, and entry mat come first, and retail tenants can pick a visit before the store opens instead of after it closes. Upstairs offices would be cleaned after hours and may not need a visit every night.

​

Class A office floors from Centennial Lakes to Highway 100 and I-494

Centennial Lakes turned old gravel pits into a 100-acre mix of park, offices, shops, and homes, and its five-building office park, close to 1 million square feet of Class A space, was finished in 2000. Pentagon Park, just north of I-494, opened in 1968 as one of the area's first suburban office parks. In a multi-story building, the visitor path is shared: main entry, elevator lobby, ground-floor restrooms, and each tenant's reception area. Nightly janitorial can cover the tenant suites, and a day porter can keep the lobby in shape

during business hours. Lobby tile calls for tile and grout cleaning, and tenant carpet for periodic hot water extraction.

 

Common areas in Southdale-area apartments and senior housing

The city's Greater Southdale plan notes that most recent development in the district has been residential, including apartments and senior and assisted living near medical services. In these buildings, the visitor path is the front entry, mail area, elevators, corridors, and community rooms where residents meet family and friends. We can clean those common areas on a written schedule for property managers and condo associations.

 

The visitor path, written into your scope

We can start your scope with the rooms visitors see most, like the entry, lobby or waiting room, and guest restrooms, then add the staff areas. Offices, clinics, and residential common areas are cleaned after hours. Whatever kind of commercial building you run in Edina, we can clean it.
