Sydney Hall’s location is on 15th Avenue between Southeast 4th Street and University Avenue at the gateway entrance to the University of Minnesota and in the Dinkytown neighborhood.
This passage, from the Dinkytown/Minneapolis Web site www.dinkytownminneapolis.com, best explains the Dinkytown mystique:
“Over the years people have come to shop at the boutiques, eat at the local restaurants such as Al’s Breakfast, or be entertained by the great music at the Varsity Theater. Mostly however, people come to Dinkytown to live. The students and non-students residing in the residential community surrounding the Dinkytown business district have created and shaped what Dinkytown is today.”
