More information about The Whittier neighborhood:

The Whittier neighborhood is 81 square blocks one mile south of downtown Minneapolis. Whittier is bounded by Franklin Avenue to the north, Interstate 35W to the east, Lyndale Avenue South to the west and Lake Street to the south. Approximately 14,000 people live in Whittier.
The neighborhood is most famous for the Nicollet Avenue commercial corridor, known as ‘Eat Street’ – in fact many people describe themselves as living in the ‘Eat Street neighborhood’. The multicultural dining options include great Vietnamese, Chinese, Middle Eastern, Somali, Carribean and American – and that is leaving out many other restaurants and the amazing ethnic groceries.
Lyndale Ave, Franklin, Lake Street and 26th St are also commercial corridors, shared with other neighborhoods. The dense commercial corridors are part of what makes Whittier so special. We are a vibrant, multicultural community: its slogan is 'The International Neighborhood'. It also has been a home base for the arts and artists in Minneapolis for over 100 years.
New to the neighborhood?
➼Go on a ‘dumpling crawl’ along Eat Street – once you have sampled the Szechuan Wontons, Taiwanese steamed buns, German spaetzle, Somali sambusas, Malaysian popiah, Italian calzone, Vietnamese Goi Cuon and Mexican taquitos, you can say you really know the neighborhood.
➼Two of the best record stores in the Twin Cities are in Whittier – have you visited Electric Fetus and Cheapo?
➼Take a walk around the Minneapolis Institute of Arts: admission is free and they have an amazing collection. Their Third Thursday evening events are a good place to start!
