Edina: US 169: U.S.169 SB @ 7th St (5th St/Lincoln Dr)

Edina blends quiet, tree-lined neighborhoods with major retail destinations in a way that reflects its position along Minnehaha Creek on the southwestern edge of Minneapolis. The creek passes through parks and residential districts before continuing toward the Mississippi River, linking this suburban city to the wider Twin Cities watershed. Southdale Center, opened in 1956, is credited as the United States’ first fully enclosed, climate-controlled shopping mall and remains a landmark of postwar retail design. The 50th & France district adds shops, restaurants and an independent cinema to a walkable local crossroads.

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.
