St. Anthony East is located in northeast Minneapolis. The neighborhood extends from Broadway Street NE on the northern border to Central Avenue NE on the east and southeast, Second Avenue NE on the south, and then Fifth and Washington streets NE on the west. The St. Anthony waterfall was the true founder of the city – named by Father Louis Hennepin. In the late 1830s, two treaties opened a triangle of land between the St. Croix and Mississippi Rivers for settlement. In 1848, Franklin Steele purchased the land east of the Mississippi River that was soon to become the city of St. Anthony. This purchase gave him control of the water power east of the river. Here he constructed the first commercial mill at the Falls of St. Anthony with the help of a millwright from Maine named Ard Godfrey. Thus began the reputation of Minneapolis as the “Mill City” and the long tradition of industry in Northeast Minneapolis.
