Shingle Creek Minneapolis Real Estate

Named for the small river than runs through the eastern portion of the neighborhood, Shingle Creek is located on the North West outskirts of Minneapolis, right on the city limits. The creek itself is named for the fact that the first shingle mill in the county was built here, in 1852. This is a lovely picnic, fishing, and boating spot in the summertime, and for anyone with a love of beautiful scenery, Shingle Creek is a wonderful place to live.
