Bohemian Flats, Historic residential site along Mississippi River in Minneapolis, United States.
The riverside location consists of a park area with walking paths situated beneath the Washington Avenue Bridge near the University of Minnesota campus.
From 1880 to 1940, this settlement housed immigrant families from Sweden, Norway, Czech Republic, Ireland, Poland, and Slovakia seeking work in nearby mills.
The neighborhood developed into a multi-ethnic community where residents maintained their native traditions while adapting to life in Minneapolis.
The park at 2150 West River Parkway operates from 6 AM to midnight in developed areas and provides canoe racks, picnic spaces, and restroom facilities.
Spring floods regularly submerged the wooden houses without foundations, forcing residents to temporarily relocate until water levels decreased.
