The Jourdain
Favorites
The Jourdain offers a wide range of apartments from studios to three-bedroom townhome family units. Underground parking helps preserve the grounds for green space and a playground. An on-site market provides convenience for residents and the greater neighborhood. Development History The Jourdain opened in 2006 as the second development of the South Quarter development (formerly Franklin Portland Gateway). Through a partnership between Aeon and Hope Community, the once blighted intersection of Franklin and Portland Avenues is being completely transformed into 300 high quality apartments and townhomes, along with new retail businesses and community space. Other developments at the intersection are Children's Village Center, The Rose and The Wellstone. Designed to be family- and pedestrian-friendly, the South Quarter development has completely changed this once vacant intersection into an attractive, vibrant community hub. The building's name honors Winifred Jourdain, Godmother of the White Earth Reservation. Winnie Jourdain, bought a home at the corner of Franklin and Portland Avenues in 1944. Her home became a refuge for hundreds of Native Americans who needed community connections to help in navigating life in the city.

In the north end of the Minneapolis' Phillips district lies Ventura Village, a small neighborhood tucked between Interstate 35 and Hiawatha Avenue. Potential residents have a wide selection of apartments and houses to rent, and the commute to downtown Minneapolis, only 1.5 miles north, typically takes less than 10 minutes.
Ventura Village's businesses and community organizations reflect the area's rich history celebrating the area's Native American culture. For a taste of classic American comfort food, locals head to Maria's Cafe, which serves breakfast and lunch. Northland Visions offers a place for local artists and crafters to sell their wares, and several festivals throughout the year celebrate the local Native culture and other Minnesota traditions.
