Bottineau Neighborhood News and Events

Located along the Mississippi, in the heart of the Northeast Arts District, Bottineau is a destination for many artists to live and work-with the conversion of the California Building into artist studios in the 1980s. The Bottineau neighborhood has a nice mix of amenities including a large park, a library, restaurants and bars along University Avenue, and its close proximity to downtown.  The neighborhood.  Home prices are modest, streets are lined with trees, and residents participate in programs that beautify the neighborhood and improve it for the future.  Mulberry Junction Community Garden was established in 1996 by artists from the adjacent California Building and it now holds a grassy picnic circle to enjoy mature perennial and native gardens as well as thirty-five vegetable plots tended by a diverse array of gardeners.
