Saint Anthony Park (Saint Paul)

Saint Anthony Park is a neighborhood in northwest Saint Paul, Minnesota. It is adjacent to the University of Minnesota's St. Paul Campus (in Falcon Heights), bordering Southeast Minneapolis on the west, the Minnesota State Fairgrounds on the east (in Falcon Heights), and the suburbs of Falcon Heights and Lauderdale to the north.

Originally set out as estates for the wealthy of Minneapolis in the late 19th century, it has become a neighborhood of people with diverse backgrounds. It is centrally located in the Twin Cities. The St. Anthony Park Branch Library, a Carnegie library built in 1917, is listed on the National Register of Historic Places and was expanded in 1999 with a children's wing. St. Anthony Park Elementary School and Murray Middle School (formerly Murray Junior High School, and before that Murray High School) are the schools in the neighborhood. Saint Anthony Park was the home to three Minnesota governors (William Rainey Marshall, 1866–70; Andrew Ryan McGill, 1887–1889; and Elmer L. Andersen, 1961–63). Luther Seminary is also in St. Anthony Park.
