    The Lowry Hill Neighborhood Historic Context Study Prepared for the Lowry Hill Residents Inc. by Landscape Research LLC 2006 The Lowry Hill Neighborhood of Minneapolis Historic Context Study Prepared for Lowry Hill Residents Inc. (LHRI) Minneapolis, MN by Carole S. Zellie Landscape Research LLC 1466 Hythe Street St. Paul, MN 55108 2006 Management Summary The Lowry Hill neighborhood bridges the northern tip of Lake of the Isles across the upland and steep bluff that extends toward the southwestern edge of downtown Minneapolis. Long before electric streetcars connected the area with downtown or the lakeshore was transformed from marshland to parkway, Thomas Lowry envisioned a landscape of large, handsome houses set along wide, tree-lined streets. By 1910 much of this residential landscape was complete, and development continued until about 1930. During this period, the success of E. Lake of the Isles Boulevard improvements and electric streetcar connections along Hennepin and Douglas Avenues invited construction of many high-quality, single-family houses as well as apartment buildings. This historic context study was commissioned by Lowry Hill Residents Inc. (LHRI). Carole S. Zellie of Landscape Research LLC conducted the research and prepared the report. The historic contexts examine the components of neighborhood development that created the architectural and landscape framework of today’s neighborhood. The focus is residential development, especially between ca. 1874 and 1930, with separate sections on apartment building construction and commercial and institutional development. Another chapter provides short biographies of many of the area’s leading architects. The East Isles neighborhood, which shares a similar pattern of development along Lake of the Isles, is the subject of a companion study conducted for the East Isles Residents Association (EIRA).
