Tangletown is an upper-middle class neighborhood of winding streets overlooking Minnehaha Creek was developed beginning in 1886 by milling executive and politician Cadwallader Washburn and his brother, milling executive and Soo Line Railroad founder, William D. Washburn.

Tangletown is such a neighborhood, and one that feels very different from any other in the city. It’s one of the few neighborhoods that completely steps off the grid and throws off the alphabetical-numerical nomenclature of the rest of Minneapolis. Here we find streets named Belmont, Longview, Prospect, Luverne, Gladstone, and maybe the best street name in the city, Rustic Lodge Avenue. These names are outliers, not turning up anywhere else in the city’s roadside vocabulary. Once the grid crosses 50th Street, it evaporates into a jumble of winding streets for a few blocks, slipping into Minnehaha Creek and then righting itself on the south bank, back into the orderly grids that continue uninterrupted all the way to the Minnesota River.

Hence “Tangletown,” for that tangled topography. It’s the one neighborhood that feels like its name.
