ABOUT CAMDEN INDUSTRIAL MINNEAPOLIS, MINNESOTA
A mix of diverse cultures, Camden is a large neighborhood that occupies almost the upper half of the northern side of Minneapolis on the east bank of the Mississippi. As the name suggests, the neighborhood is lined by an array of industry warehouses along Interstate-94. It is a hard cement jungle with very few green, open spaces. The beauty with the community is that the local manufacturers sell local products to residents particularly across the railroad track from Webber Park – the spot that hosts Minneapolis City Hall and Courthouse.
Camden’s is bordered by the Mississippi River to the east, Xerxes Avenue North to the west, Lowry Avenue to the south, and 53rd Avenue North to the North. The neighborhood also includes the Humboldt and Camden Industrial areas, both of which are yet to be declared as individual neighborhoods.
