Prospect Park, Minneapolis
Prospect Park is a historic neighborhood within the University community of the U.S. city of Minneapolis, Minnesota. The area is bounded by the Mississippi River to the south, the City of Saint Paul, Minnesota to the east, the Burlington Northern railroad yard to the north, and the Stadium Village commercial district of the University of Minnesota to the west. The neighborhood is composed of several districts which include the East River Road area.
An urban village once served by streetcar, Prospect Park is now a combination of multiple districts and uses. Families live in single-family homes on ''Tower Hill'' while University students reside in apartment housing in the western districts. Estate homes of the early to mid 20th century line East River Road. The ''SouthEast Industrial Area'' (SEMI) in the north contains light manufacturing, rail yards and remnant grain silos. University Avenue houses a mix of retail and restaurant businesses from the Stadium Village area.
==History==
In 1874, real estate tycoon Louis F. Menage began plotting new subdivisions along Minneapolis's southern boundaries. Menage petitioned the City Council to accept his Prospect Park plats in 1884. Construction lasted into the 1910s as topography and geographic isolation made building difficult. Houses were designed in the popular architectural styles of the period, especially the Queen Anne and the Colonial Revival styles.〔 The Minneapolis Board of Education constructed the Sidney Pratt Elementary School in 1898.
Thomas Lowry's interurban commuter train served the neighborhood with its stop at Malcolm Avenue〔 until eventually the intercity line between Saint Paul and Minneapolis along University Avenue was opened. The Franklin Avenue Bridge also eventually carried a line.
