EAST TOWN

East Town is not a community you go to if you want to get away from it all. The streets are full of life and there are activities for everyone. From the area's history as a bustling center for milling, commerce and medical care, to its future as a city hub of activity, with sports, performing arts, healthy living, shopping and more. East Town is the dynamic new place for Downtown growth... The East Town Development work group was formed by the Minneapolis Downtown Council-Downtown Improvement District and the East Town Business Partnership and includes more than 60 organizations and 100 leaders representing businesses, non-profits, elected officials, universities, and neighborhoods. This inter-disciplinary group advances the development goals of Intersections: The Downtown 2025 Plan and hosts monthly strategic presentations ranging from planning and design to projects and critical path with a special focus on diverse housing growth.
