Henry Wadworth Longfellow was a famous poet for the early 1800s, and in Minneapolis, Minnesota, his memory is honored with a neighborhood named in his honor. Longfellow is found in the east central part of the city. Historically, this neighborhood was the first served by rail in Minneapolis, and you can still see this influence in the industrial parts of the area. However, there are a number of residential streets as well, with multi-family homes used for renting being extremely common.

One of the nicest things about Longfellow is its park. Longfellow Park stretches across the southern part of the neighborhood. This natural environment is surrounded by smaller houses and is a great place for families and children.
