Parks and trails in Northeast

This 150-acre neighborhood of over 2,000 residents is nearly half residential with the other half dedicated to parks and commercial uses. The neighborhood hosts many large Victorian houses, and a square dating back to the 1800’s. The neighborhood got its name from Civil War general and U.S. Sen. John A. Logan. The neighborhood is near the center of Northeast Minneapolis and, much like the rest of the community, is home to many artists, making it a creative and imaginative place to live. The Northrup King Building is in the neighborhood, offering residents year-round opportunities to shop for art, apparel, furniture, and more. Other studio spaces in the neighborhood include the Casket Arts Building, Waterbury Building, Q.arma Building, Solar Arts Building and the Thorpe Building. There is a heavy mix of housing in the neighborhood with larger Victorian-style homes as well as smaller wood frame houses. Low-rise rental units, either fourplexes or duplexes, can also be found in the neighborhood.

The Ideal Diner was built in 1949 and has been a popular spot in Northeast community ever since it was established. The old neon sign gleams brightly into Central Avenue as it draws visitors into the restaurant every evening. Serving a diverse base of customers, the Ideal Diner is a 15-stool diner with a counter to watch your food being cooked. The environment is perfect for conversations of all sorts or for watching major sporting events. People come to experience the atmosphere and fellowship that the diner offers. The diner welcomes anyone in to enjoy the experience, as they continue to be a popular destination.

Another destination that residents enjoy is Maya Cuisine. A Mexican restaurant and bar serving a Sunday brunch buffet, lunch, and dinner, residents enjoy the authentic taste and generous portions.
