Presenting a blend of historic charm, eco-friendly living and chic entertainment, Lyndale creates an ideal environment for residents with a taste for culture. Artists flock to this neighborhood for its close proximity to galleries, studios and theaters, and a treasure trove of affordable apartments attracts residents from all walks of life. When you see a flurry of shoppers, hipsters, avid bikers and painters after walking just one block, you realize that Lyndale's culture has a flavor all its own.
Situated in south Minneapolis against Interstate 35W just south of Whittier, Lyndale lies just minutes from some of the hottest shopping, nightlife and entertainment in the state. Plus, you can't beat being able to walk out your door to grab some whole-grain bread and organic milk down the street. Whether you come for the low-cost studio apartments or the trendy atmosphere, get hooked on Lyndale after the first bite of yucca fries at Hola Arepa.
