Macalester-Groveland, Saint Paul

Macalester-Groveland is a neighborhood and city planning district in Saint Paul, Minnesota in the United States.

The neighborhood has a suburban feel, but it is a densely built environment with restaurants, coffee shops, and local bars.

[7] The development in the 1920s and after is later than other parts of Saint Paul which resulted in buildings more oriented around private automobile travel and commercial areas mostly located at public streetcar corners.

[8] A subarea of the neighborhood is called Tangletown for the twisting streets that contrast to the gridded structure of the rest of the city.

Lots in Tangletown were intended to fund the endowment for Macalester College but that plan was not successful.
