Block E ("E" being for "Entertainment") is at the center
of downtown Minneapolis. It's between 6th and 7th Streets,
and Hennepin Avenue and 1st Avenue. It's across from City Center on Hennepin,
and across from the Target Center on 1st Avenue.
Before being razed around 1987, Block E was filled with a variety of seedy and not-so-seedy entertainment businesses. The property was a parking lot for over a decade while various development projects were considered and then shelved. The current Block E entertainment complex was developed by McCaffery Interests. Different tenents began opening up in 2002, such as the Crown Block E 15 movie theater, Border's Bookstore, and the Hard Rock Cafe. |
