Named the happiest city in the U.S. by The Institute for Quality of Life, Minneapolis is home to 180 parks with 55 miles of biking and walking paths, 22 lakes, 12 gardens, seven golf courses, and countless world-class entertainment venues. True, it’s the kind of praise that makes us upper Midwest folks a little uncomfortable. But don’t worry, the City of Lakes is also a hub for connecting your favorite things to do in the greater Twin Cities area. Just hop on the Metro Transit Light Rail four blocks from our Mill District home and set out to explore.

Only two blocks away, M Physicians Mill City Clinic offers convenient access to the comprehensive network of experts at the University of Minnesota Hospital and Clinics. Other hospitals within a mile of Abiitan Mill City include Abbott Northwestern Hospital and Hennepin County Medical Center.

Suit up for a year-round calendar of professional and recreational sporting events. You’re always close to your favorite indoor and outdoor activities of the season.

What’s not to like about the local food scene? Award-winning restaurants, international cuisine, trendy food halls, fine dining options, and neighborhood brew pubs with their own quirky personality. Call ahead to reserve a table or lawn bowling lane.

From spotting bald eagles soaring over the river to finding your favorite biking or walking route, experiencing the outdoors in Minneapolis is easier—and more rewarding—than finding a pothole.

Encounter meaningful art of all kinds. From a growing public art scene, including Native American arts and culture, to three acclaimed art museums. From drag shows and diverse new voices in performing arts to Broadway shows in the theater district. It’s all here, moments away on foot, bike, car, bus, or rail.

Go on finding sprees among the trendiest boutiques in the most bustling corners of Minneapolis. With shops featuring a diverse set of values, such as ethical and sustainable fashion, minority-owned and woman-owned businesses, your new styles won’t be the only thing making a statement.
