Vincent Ave North
"Pretty upscale place"
This place is located in the midtown area. Very big beautiful homes,nice cars everywhere. Vincent Ave was named for Thomas M. Vincent . Who graduated from West Point in 1853 and was the assistant Adjutant General of the U.S. through the Civil War. Theres even a memorial of him right on the sidewalk infront of a cafe.

Emerson Ave South
"Used to work here"
I used to work at an insurance company on this street. Its pretty busy for the most part. Other than that nothing special. But the street has a pretty good history, infact Emerson Ave was named for Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803-1882), poet and transcendentalist. Born in Boston, Massachusetts.
Oak St North
"It's ok nice movie theatre"
Only things this place had is Oak Cinemas and a Target. This place used to be nice, but now its old and run down. Only good thing now is the nice homes around the way. I would look here if considering purchasing a new home.

3rd Ave South
"Busy Street near Downtown area"
This street is always jam packed but the traffic patterns have been adjusted to allow better traffic flow over 3rd Ave bridges into downtown by adding new double turn lanes, and prohibiting left turns at some intersections in Northeast. Traffic signals at the Hennepin and Central intersection have been retimed and will be monitored to see if further adjustments are needed. I find this great, and it will be better for people going to work in the mornings
Hennepin Ave
"Another hot spot"
If live here here , then you live by everything O'charleys,Olive Garden,AMC,Walmart,Old Navy,Radio Shack and much more. Great homes nearby. Great schools in the area. Nice place to go here is a place called GameWorks. They have a huge arcade, nice restaurant, Bowling alley/bar. Nice area!

Shenandoah Ln North
"Right off Vicksburg"
I lived not to far from Shenandoah and I would go there all the time because its right next to Parkers Lake,Parker Lake Park, and the Baseball Field. I would look into this place if looking for a home to raise a family. Parker Lake Park is so beautiful, nice trails for walking your dog,playground for kids, and tennis courts this is a great placw to go on weekends. I love it.

"This is a very nice place"
This is a nice place! Its a great street to go on a sunday evening to relax and wind down before Monday. Lots of shopping plazas and also fabolous restaurants and a nice Bookstore/Cafe that I go to every weekend. My favorite restaurant of all time on 21st ave is Wildwood.Its a little on the pricey side. But you will love it, this is also a good place to take a loved one or for a family dinner. This is a place you definitly want to visit sometime if you want to enjoy yourself

Portland
"I didn't like at all"
This is area with a lot of Immigrants. If you are into Latin or Asian culture food,music,etc then you will like this place. I guess it is ok, but the crime in this area is very bad. Not enough police to patrol the area also. Not a place I would raise a family in my opinion.
Lamont Way
"Great place to raise a family"
This place is realy nice, It's not to far from the lake (which is clean and swimmable). Nice schools with high test scores for all the school. Onlt problem is its not near to much of anything. Other than that this is a great place in my opinion.

"Not much for you"
There isnt much on this street far as entertainment. They are building a gas station a few blocks away though so that should be nice for the traffic.

Northwest 14th Ave
"I like and you will like"
Also know as the Pearl District! Great restaurants,great shopping. Only thing is there were a lot of stray dogs in the parking lot of one of the plazas I was at for some strange reason. A great restaurant to visit here is Le Bouchon, its a small French bistro serving authentic French food. Look for the classics like escargots,onion soup, roasted chicken with raspberry sauce (This you have to try!),roast pork with garlic sauce, and homade desserts. Theres a Office max,Target,Mcdonalds and everything.
