The Linden Hills neighborhood, named after the linden trees and rolling topography found in the neighborhood, is a charming residential neighborhood surrounded by some of the best natural amenities in the city. Located in southwest Minneapolis in the midst of the popular chain of lakes, the neighborhood is bound by 47th Street to the south, France Avenue to the west, 36th Street and Lake Calhoun Parkway to the north and William Berry Drive and Lake Harriet Parkway to the east.
On the east side of the neighborhood is beautiful 335-acre Lake Harriet, part of the Minneapolis chain of lakes and one of the more popular recreational areas in the city. Residents of Linden Hills have easy access to the pedestrian and bike trails that follow Lake Harriet’s perimeter and lead to swimming beaches, fishing piers, concessions and the famous Lake Harriet Bandshell, an area landmark since 1927. The Lake Harriet-Como Streetcar Trolley line, which travels on the west side of Lake Harriet north to Lake Calhoun, is a popular attraction for both residents and visitors alike. Built at the end of the 19th century to connect downtown Minneapolis with the lakes, this is the last historic rail line operating in the Twin Cities.
