Living in Langdon, Cottage Grove

Where Langdon is

The city's comprehensive plan places the Langdon area along portions of West Point Douglas Road, and it includes the Majestic Ballroom. Langdon has deep roots: on March 9, 1875, the town board moved its meetings from Old Cottage Grove to Langdon.

The Old Town Hall still stands at 9540 Islay Avenue South, on what was then Main Street.

Homes in Langdon

The Old Town Hall was built in 1881 for about $900 and joined the city's Register of Historic Sites and Landmarks in 1982. It shows the New England style of the early settlers, with a limestone foundation and wooden shingles, and the Langdon Consolidated School is on the city's list of properties to preserve.

The city's vision for the area, called Langdon Village, is a pedestrian-oriented mix of shops and community businesses serving a new higher density neighborhood. We check each home's age, zoning and any planned changes nearby before you buy.

Parks and places nearby

The city pages we checked do not name a park inside Langdon. Cottage Grove runs a citywide park system with neighborhood parks, trails and park buildings you can rent, and we map the parks closest to any home you consider.

If a home here is on the city's historic register, ask the city about its design review before you plan exterior changes.

Getting around and schools

West Point Douglas Road is the main road through the Langdon area. Earlier plans placed a Red Rock transit station here, but the plan says it moved north of Highway 61.

The Cottage Grove Park and Ride is also on West Point Douglas Road South, at number 7500, with express buses to St. Paul and Minneapolis. The area falls under the District 833 boundary maps the city links to, and the district confirms the school by address.
