Located in the Southeastern region of Minneapolis, Northrop is named after the elementary school located in the area. The school itself is named for Cyrus Northrop, once a president of the University of Minnesota.

Northrop is home to a busy business area, a hub which includes restaurants, cafes, banks, a theatre, and many other amenities. Also here is McRae Park, an important landmark constructed in the 1960s which offers a wide variety of recreational activities including ice skating, baseball, volleyball, tennis, playgrounds and a wading pool, as well as beautiful gardens.

Most of the houses in Northrup were built before the 1940s and are two-bedroom homes made out of brick, stone and stucco. Most of these homes have been renovated or updated to meet the needs of today's buyer. There are a handful of larger, multi-family complexes in Northrup.
