"Nicollet Ave's Never-Ending Sites and Surprises Nicollet Ave. is one of the major arteries of Minneapolis. From the dining and shopping of the downtown pedestrian mall to the international flavors of Eat Street’s restaurants further out, you could spend an entire day wandering (and eating) along this street alone. Highlights include the IDS Center Crystal Court's light-filled atrium, national brands ranging from Target’s headquarters to Saks Fifth Avenue, and restaurants like Quang’s Vietnamese pho, Hola Arepa’s Latin American delights, and Wild Acre Eatery’s straight-from-their-own-farm food."
