Old Town

Minneapolis, MN


 

Popular Historic Birthplace of the City

Old Town is the small riverfront neighborhood across from Downtown on the East Bank of the Mississippi. It includes Nicollet Island, Historic Main Street, and the East Hennepin business district and is historically significant as the earliest modern settlement of what would later become the City of Minneapolis. Of the three main downtown riverfront neighborhoods, Old Town is considered the most “neighborhoody”.
