Downtown St. Paul, also known as Lowertown, is changing rapidly into a residential neighborhood. Residents find everything from theater to a weekend farmer's market within walking distance. The downtown area has the added convenience of a skyway system (enclosed off-ground walkways between buildings) to make winter walking convenient. The borders around downtown are made up of University Avenue to the north, Marion Street to the west and Interstate 94 to the east. The Mississippi River runs along the southern edge of downtown, offering beautiful views from many homes and biking and running trails connecting it to many other St. Paul and Minneapolis neighborhoods.
