Hopkins, MN Overview
|
|
During the past 100 years, Hopkins, the Twin Cities “mainstreet”, has evolved from a small rural town into a vital metropolitan community. For businesses and residents alike, the city offers an appealing climate of historic charm and well-planned, aggressive redevelopment. A short drive west is Minnetonka, and a few minutes east are Minneapolis’ central lakes. In addition, a number of parks and recreational facilities are located within Hopkins. The Hopkins Downtown/Mainstreet business district continues to thrive as evidenced by the addition of new, mixed-use development.
