Prime West Side Location
• Steps away from trails, outdoor concerts, and historic public squares. Donated as pastureland in 1849 by settler John Irvine, this site is the center of the Irvine Park Historic District. It features a New England-style public square, a central Historic Irvine Park fountain, and surrounds some of the city's oldest surviving homes and stone structures. The area is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. Take the walking path from this home for a short walk to Irvine Park
• High Bridge Views: Footsteps from this home, you will see panoramic views of the downtown skyline and Mississippi River. It's a towering inverted arch bridge carrying MN-149 across the Mississippi River. Soaring 160 feet above the water (highest bridge in Minnesota), it offers sweeping views of downtown St. Paul and is the best place to watch the fireworks from Harriet Island. The current structure was built in 1987, replacing an iconic 1889 wrought-iron bridge Saint Paul Historical.
• Urban Conveniences: Walk across the bridge to West 7th restaurants, Xcel Energy Center, CHS Field, and Mancini's Steakhouse.
