Neighborhood

One of five neighborhoods in the greater Longfellow Community, Seward lies southeast of downtown Minneapolis and is bordered on its east side by the Mississippi River. The University of Minnesota campus lies just to the northeast, across the river. The availability of local goods and services inside this compact area give residents reason to brag. It’s been likened to a borough in New York City: civic-minded, grass-roots oriented, outgoing, and infused with a strong sense of identity. As one of the older neighborhoods in Minneapolis, Seward has a long history and strong efforts to preserve its historic buildings.
