Minneapolis, Minnesota

As the twin to St. Paul, Minneapolis sits on the opposite side of the Mississippi. Originally an Indian settlement, exploration by the French changed that notion. The city became centered around Saint Anthony Falls which provided hydropower for both the timber and the milling industries.

The ability to use the falls as power created early growth for this city of the Midwest. Companies like Pillsbury and General Mills headquartered in Minneapolis and at one point in American history, 10% of the grain used in the U.S. was milled there.Today, Minneapolis has changed quite a lot.  It is now known as the Top Tech city in the United States with companies like IBM, ING and others calling it home. It has also been named one of the Seven Cool Cities for Young Professionals.

Distinctive Neighborhoods

Searching for your Minneapolis apartment will mean looking at a number of distinctively different neighborhoods. Downtown remains the center of the city and there are loft conversions galore along with a great nightlife.

The Northeast section is the oldest with firmly rooted ethnic sections and its own kind of liveliness.  Uptown is truly a youth center.  It 's funky and fun until it nears the Lake area where younger couples like to raise their families.  All sorts of alternative lifestyles are comfortable in Lyn-Lake.

Great Theater

The vibrancy of Minneapolis extends into all areas of lifestyles and things to do. It is the largest live theater community outside of New York City. Known as one of the most literate cities in the country, it is also a center for printing and publishing. The Walker Arts Center is world renown for its art collection.

The Minnesota Vikings NFL team and the Twins for baseball will keep the sports fan busy. Enormous forethought by the city's fathers provide an excellent parks and recreation system, which can provide plenty of space and facilities for all your personal sporting pursuits.

Eclectic Dining

Dining out in Minneapolis is a gastronomic feast.  You 'll find everything from Somalian to German to Vietnamese all within a short distance from your new Minneapolis apartment. Try out Nye's Polonaise for excellent Polish style food with its great location along the river. Glueck's is a fourth generation restaurant that brews it own beer (since 1857!). 

Independent Music
