Where Morningside is
Morningside sits on the east edge of Edina. The City of Edina lists its boundaries as France Avenue on the east, West 40th Street on the north, and Natchez Avenue to West 41st Street on the west, then west of Oakdale Avenue from West 42nd Street.
The neighborhood has its own story. The children of farmer Jonathan Grimes first platted it in 1905, and the city calls it Edina's oldest residential neighborhood. Morningside split off as its own village in 1920 and rejoined Edina in 1966.
