Riverfront District
About the Neighborhood
Minneapolis Riverfront District is the historic "birthplace of Minneapolis" that celebrates and entertains with an eclectic collection of historic buildings, scenic parks, cultural venues, dining, shopping and lodging, with the inspiring St. Anthony Falls on the Mississippi River as a dramatic backdrop. Breezy and tree-lined, this Central Park-like setting in downtown Minneapolis is the perfect place to unwind, explore and entertain.
The Minneapolis Riverfront District is many things to many people. To some it is a giant archaeological dig, to others it's a playground of dining and nightlife. And yet to others it is a maze of beautiful parks and trails. Learn about history, relax aboard a paddle boat cruise, sip drinks overlooking the river. No matter what you are into, the Riverfront District has something for you.
