What homeowners often pay for single-family homes and duplexes
The neighborhood’s Craftsman-style homes are generally found west of Interstate 94. Many were built before 1925, though more were added in the 2020s. There are also select Victorian and Queen Anne homes in the area. One example is known as the Andrew Olson House, a historic Queen Anne built in 1886. “I’ve been inside that house, and it is spectacular,” says Stephanie Gruver, a Realtor with Re/Max Results. “It has the original woodwork and stained glass. It was all restored and saved.” Gruver says the neighborhood’s other historic homes can have similar features. Prices for single-family homes often range from the mid-$100,000s to the mid-$400,000s. Duplexes and fourplexes can run from the upper $100,000s to the upper $400,000s. The area is generally less expensive than Near North, but is more expensive than the surrounding McKinley and Jordan neighborhoods.
Victorian homes add timeless charm to the Hawthorne neighborhood.

The Hawthorne Neighborhood Council supports residents
Hawthorne is one of six neighborhoods that make up the larger Near North area, and those communities tend to visit each other’s restaurants and businesses. The Hawthorne Neighborhood Council brings people together through events like Community Day, a celebration that blends music with prize giveaways and other activities. The organization also shares information on financial resources and news that affects residents.

People can drive, bike or take a Metro Transit bus
The neighborhood is roughly 3 miles from downtown Minneapolis, where people often commute to work. It’s home to national companies like Target, and visitors can attend concerts at the Orpheum Theatre. Driving there often takes 10-20 minutes, depending on traffic. Metro Transit buses make stops in the community and can get riders downtown in 15-25 minutes. Biking there is also an option, as roads like North 2nd Street and North Emerson Avenue have designated bike lanes.

Trails along the river and a community park
Residents have easy access to the Mississippi River. There are several walking trails and small green spaces along the water, like Ole Olson Park, that link together. The Great Northern Greenway’s bike trails span both sides of the river, crossing at the Broadway Bridge.
Away from the water, Farview Park offers sports fields, a recreation center, a wading pool and a playground. The hill at the center of the park is known for its view of the city. It also contains a tribute to one of the city’s music legends. “There’s a purple raindrop [sculpture] in the park that is dedicated to Prince,” Gruver says. The historic Capri Theater, in nearby Jordan, was the site of Prince’s first solo performance. It hosts concerts, film screenings and community events like the Capri Arts Festival.
Friends can come together and relax while watching their kids at Farview Park.
