Central (neighborhood), Minneapolis
Appearance
The Central neighborhood of Minneapolis, Minnesota is located south of the downtown region of the city. It is bounded by Lake Street on the north, Chicago Avenue on the east, 38th Street on the south, and Interstate 35W on the west.
Developed mostly between 1900 and 1930, the Central neighborhood is racially diverse and has drawn African-American residents since the 1920s. Until it was closed in 1982 and later razed, Central High School was located here (Prince (artist) graduated from Central in 1976).
