• Strachauer Park Neighborhood of Edina is located in the Northeast quadrant of the city of Edina. It is bounded by 60th Street to the North, Xerxes Avenue to the East, Hwy. 62 to the South and France Avenue to the West. This residential neighbor was developed in three subdivisions, Bel-Air, Town Realty Edina Terrace, and the Erickson Addition. Its homes are primarily of the 1950′s era but the recent “tear-down” transformation of Edina has interspersed a few newly built homes throughout the neighborhood.  The neighborhood’s namesake park has youth soccer fields, skating and hockey rink, warming house, basketball courts, playground and seasonal dog park.  There’s nothing like walking out your front door to your own neighborhood Strachauer Park.  See you there!
• More Parks: A couple of blocks north there’s the quaint Chowen Park, and the natural setting of York Park which resides on the banks of Minnehaha Creek. Playgrounds, fields, and courts will keep you very happy and active.  The Pamela Park lighted turf playfields will be your destination if your team is playing soccer or lacrosse, and the diamonds for baseball and softball have batting cages next to the newly built park shelter/building/warming house.
• Trails & Lakes: The Beard Ave footbridge allows you to cross the Minnehaha Creek and connect to the Minneapolis Grand Round trail system.  Lake Harriet is only 2 miles away as is the  20+ paved trail system will take you into downtown, the river, falls and lakes.  This is why you live here…convenient access to the Metro area trail systems.
