Neighborhood

Macalester-Groveland, sometimes shortened to Mac-Grove, stretches from the eastern banks of the Mississippi River to Summit Hill. Mac-Grove is a largely residential neighborhood, touting an array of apartments and single-family homes available for rent.

The neighborhood contains the picturesque Summit Avenue Historic District, which boasts an impressive collection of Victorian-era homes between dense canopies of lush trees. One block south of Summit Avenue is the vibrant Grand Avenue, which is teeming with specialty shops, independent coffeehouses, and eclectic eateries.

Mac-Grove is famously convenient to multiple private colleges, including the University of Saint Thomas, Saint Catherine University, and Macalester College, making the neighborhood a top choice for many students, faculty, and staff. The community celebrates the start of the summer season every year with the annual Grand Old Day Festival.
