About North End Neighborhood

Photos should be historic or of historic buildings or locations in the North End Neighborhood of Saint Paul Minnesota.

District 6, the North End, is located in the north central part of St. Paul, north of downtown. It encompasses a large area bounded by the southern shore of Lake Como, Maryland Avenue, and the city limits at Larpenteur Avenue on the north, Lexington Parkway on the west, the Burlington Northern Railroad tracks on the south, and Interstate 35E on the east. The district is comprised largely of the neighborhood known as the North End (east of Dale Street), but also includes the Warrendale area south of Lake Como. It contains three large cemeteries: Oakland, founded in 1853 as a city cemetery and planned by prominent landscape architect Horace W.S. Cleveland; Elmhurst, established in 1865 as a German Lutheran cemetery; and Calvary, a Catholic cemetery initiated on this site in 1866. The district also contains some industry located along two Burlington Northern railroad lines and one set of Soo Line tracks, and major commercial strips along Rice and Jackson Streets with additional smaller business districts along Dale Street, Front Avenue, and Larpenteur Avenue.
