The Columbia Park neighborhood is a quiet and diverse neighborhood tucked away in northeast Minneapolis along city limits. The neighborhood was named after a few reasons: the park the neighborhood is centered on, the “Columbian” year or the 400th year since Christopher Columbus’ first voyage to the Americas, and the adjacent suburb Columbia Heights to the north of the neighborhood. University Avenue and the Mississippi River to the west, 37th Avenue to the north, Central Avenue to the east and 27th Avenue to the south.
Columbia Park is an “L” shaped neighborhood and is generally divided into three main parts. The southeastern and northwestern portions of the neighborhood contain industrial and railroad uses, while the center third of the neighborhood is parkland and residential, with mainly brick Tudor and two-story colonial type single family residences.
The recreational highlight of the neighborhood is Columbia Park. This 180-acre park features rolling terrain and plenty of wide open green spaces in addition to walking paths, picnic areas, athletic fields, playground, horseshoe pits and a regulation ruby field. Within the park is the 18-hole Columbia Golf Club. Established in 1919, the Columbia Golf Club is the second oldest municipal golf course in Minneapolis and features rolling terrain and mature trees scattered throughout. There is also an adjacent driving range and state-of-the-art training center and plenty of instructors to offer a helping hand. Located at the southern end of the park along St. Anthony Parkway, is a large fenced in Dog Park that is very popular among neighborhood residents and their furry companions.
