New Brighton: MN 988A: I-35W NB @ Co Rd 88

Tucked along Rice Creek in the northern Twin Cities, New Brighton is a place whose character is shaped by a network of lakes, wetlands and parkland. This Ramsey County community sits between Minneapolis and Saint Paul, yet its local rhythm is closely tied to water: Long Lake and the Rice Creek corridor provide room for walking, cycling and seasonal birdlife. New Brighton's history also includes the New Brighton Stockyards, which operated for much of the 20th century and made the city an important livestock-trading point in the region. Residential neighborhoods, civic facilities and trails connect this established suburb to the broader metropolitan area.

Forests, prairie and a vast lake country define much of Minnesota – these environments sustain farming, recreation and communities accustomed to long, cold winters. The Mississippi River begins at Lake Itasca in the north, then crosses the state on its way south, while Minnesota’s Lake Superior shoreline brings a markedly different, rocky Great Lakes character to the northeast. Minneapolis and Saint Paul form the Twin Cities on the river, the state’s principal urban centre. Minnesota is also home to Dakota and Ojibwe communities whose cultural presence remains central to the region.

The Atlantic, Pacific and Gulf coasts define much of the United States — their ports, fisheries and trade routes have long tied the country’s economy to the wider world. Between them, the Rocky Mountains, Great Plains and Mississippi River basin form sharply different regions, from high western ranges to broad agricultural heartlands. Cities carry much of the national story: New York’s Statue of Liberty, a gift from France dedicated in 1886, remains an enduring symbol, while Washington, DC concentrates major federal institutions. Indigenous nations have shaped these lands for millennia, and their living cultures remain essential to the country’s identity.
