Extreme Makeover: Road Edition
Lyndale Avenue South, which runs along the neighborhood’s western edge, is a crucial corridor in the area, which many people use to commute. Unfortunately, the road has a history of being dangerous and inaccessible due to poor infrastructure for walking, busing and biking. Speeding traffic, narrow sidewalks and chaotic crossings make it difficult to get around. Luckily, the county plans to reconstruct the street in 2026, rebuilding the road from scratch. In the summer of 2023, community discussions were opened up for residents to share the changes they wish to make in the road’s makeover. So far, the vision includes protected bikeways, convenient bus rapid transit services and an accessible, walkable streetscape.
Lyn-Lake is a a commercial district in Lyndale full of shopping and dining.
The Lyndale neighborhood offers quiet living in southern Minneapolis.

To me personally, I feel this area is the best fit for me because I don't usually drive and everything that I need is nearby. But one thing I am not happy with is the shootings that happens frequently. Two days ago, an adult was shot on the forehead but no action was taken. Sometimes, I feel so scared when I am walking down the streets because young adults have guns with them and if they request something from you, and you deny, the action is that they will shoot you or even threaten you. The security is the issue in this area.
