New BrightonNew Brighton: compact, established, and ready for updates
New Brighton is a small, mostly built-out city north of St. Paul. Its homes, largely from the 1950s through the 1970s, are ready for thoughtful exterior updates.
Long Lake and the neighborhoods around it
Long Lake Regional Park is New Brighton's centerpiece, with Rice Creek flowing through it. Around it, neighborhoods are mostly ramblers and split-levels on regular lots, with some newer redevelopment near the old Northwest Quadrant.
These homes are often on their second or third roof and still have original windows or older siding.
