Saint Anthony Main sits on the other side of
Central Avenue from Riverplace, a housing and office complex. It fronts the river at
Saint Anthony Falls, the only waterfall on the Mississippi River, and sits across from the
Main Street Station, host of the Water Power Park, which opened in Spring 2007. Some of the buildings in the area date from the 1850s when the Village of Saint Anthony on the northeast side of the Mississippi River was still separate from Minneapolis itself. Several are contributing properties to the
Saint Anthony Falls Historic District: • Pracna Building, 117 Main Street SE (1890, now Pracna on Main) • Salisbury & Satterlee Company Complex, 201-205 and 219 Main Street SE (1885, now Vic's Dining and Tuggs) • Upton Block/ Union Iron Works, 129 Main Street SE (1855) • Martin and Morrison Block, 127-129 Main Street SE (1858) There are newer buildings in the area such as Phoenix on the River and the Mill and Main apartments and the Stone Arch Apartments complexes. The
Pillsbury A-Mill was renovated and converted into new apartments including the A-Mill Artist lofts. ==References==
