Thomas Dale St. Paul MN Information

Click On Map To Enlarge

One of St. Paul's oldest and most storied neighborhoods, Frogtown had homes constructed within its limits as early as the 1860’s by Irish, German, Scandinavian and Polish immigrants. A significant number of these immigrants were employed in the area so they constructed modest brick and wood homes in the neighborhood. Many were employed by the Jackson Street Railroad shops — they were a large employer in the area until the 1970s.

The Church of St. Agnes is arguably the most recognizable building in the neighborhood, which was constructed from 1909 to 1912. The building has a 200 foot tall dome that is truly a sight to behold.
