Lowry Hill and the adjacent Uptown commercial district form one of the busier, more urban parts of Southwest Minneapolis, with a mix of early-1900s mansions on Lowry Hill proper and dense apartment corridors along Hennepin and Lyndale Avenues closer to Lake Street. Several older apartment buildings in this corridor have been converted or repurposed into assisted living and memory care communities over the past two decades, taking advantage of existing multi-story structures rather than new construction.
Lowry Hill / Uptown is a neighborhood in Minneapolis. Senior care serving it is licensed the same way as the rest of the city, by the Minnesota Department of Health under Chapter 144G.
