Victorian houses, a park that’s busy all year and some of the city’s best-known art studios. Logan Park is creative to its core.
Logan Park is in Northeast Minneapolis, bounded by 19th Avenue NE, Central Avenue NE, Broadway and Washington Street NE. Named for Civil War general and U.S. Senator John A. Logan, it’s about 150 acres, roughly half homes and half parks and businesses. Housing ranges from large Victorians to smaller wood-frame houses, with some duplexes and fourplexes.
Here’s an honest look, whether you’re selling or buying.
Studios, a classic diner and a busy park
The Northrup King Building, home to hundreds of artists, is here, along with other studio buildings such as the Casket Arts Building. Rosalux, a long-running artist collective gallery, is on the neighborhood’s east side. The Ideal Diner, a counter-only spot dating to 1949, has been a Central Avenue landmark for generations.
Logan Park itself, about 10 acres, has fields for baseball, softball, soccer and football, basketball and tennis courts, winter skating and hockey, a playground, wading pool and walking paths. See Minneapolis parks and trails.
What buyers check before they tour
- Schools: Logan Park is served by Minneapolis Public Schools. Assignments and boundaries can change, so confirm the assigned schools for any address with the district.
- Older homes: Much of the housing here is a century old or more. Look closely at the foundation, electrical, plumbing, roof and any past updates, and plan a thorough inspection.
- Duplexes and fourplexes: If you’re looking at a multi-unit building to live in, ask about city rental licensing, inspections and existing leases before you write an offer.
