Evening Traffic Through LynLake, Minneapolis
Traffic flows through the LynLake district of Minneapolis at South Dupont and Bryant Avenue, a neighborhood long known as a crossroads between Uptown and Whittier. Once a streetcar junction for the Twin City Rapid Transit Company, the area declined after the 1950s but later rebounded through waves of redevelopment and independent business growth. Today, LynLake blends historic brick storefronts with modern apartments and restaurants, reflecting Minneapolis’s broader push toward urban density and transit-oriented design along the former streetcar corridor.
