Nestled alongside the banks of the mighty Mississippi River, the Mill District is an exciting neighborhood in the eastern portion of Downtown Minneapolis. The Mill District is known for its stunning mix of historic architecture and modern delights.
The Mill District is home to a number of former flour mills, remnants of Minneapolis’ past life as the flour milling capital of the world. Many of these former flour mills have been converted into luxury lofts and condos. Even if you don’t live in one, you’ll appreciate the look of these impressive brick structures and their vintage signage juxtaposed against the modern Minneapolis skyline.
The neighborhood offers plenty of green space and opportunities for outdoor recreation at Mill Ruins Park and Gold Medal Park, along with close proximity to the Commons, U.S. Bank Stadium, and Bohemian Flats Park. Several cultural institutions call the neighborhood home, including Guthrie Theater and Mill City Museum. Most residents enjoy easy commutes with great access public transit, I-35W, the University of Minnesota Law School, Augsburg University, and countless downtown employers.
