Lowertown Neighborhood Association

Neighborhood Association Mission

The mission of Lowertown is to enhance the neighborhood and bring neighbors together to: develop a healthy community, promote a culture of sustainability, create a sustainable community infrastructure, promote a thriving economy, create vibrant public realm, and to promote neighborhood cohesiveness and pride through the organization of community improvement projects, groups and social events.

History/Description

The Eastside Neighborhood Association formed in 1997. The association includes approximately 2,822 residents comprised of home-owners and renters in a core-neighborhood area east of downtown Rochester, Minnesota. Besides being the gateway to both Quarry Hill and Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Parks, we have Mayo Field where the local Rochester Honker’s play baseball, historic Oakwood Cemetery and Mayo Memorial Park within our boundaries.
