demographics

Nicollet Island/East Bank ( ) is a neighborhood in the University community of Minneapolis. It is a part of Minneapolis City Council ward 3, represented by Michael Rainville, and state legislative district 59B.

The neighborhood is situated just across the Mississippi River from Downtown Minneapolis, one of six in the University community. It comprises Nicollet Island and the portion of the eastern riverbank located between Central Avenue and the BNSF Railway line. The "East Bank" portion of the neighborhood is commonly referred to as a part of Northeast or Old St. Anthony, as this area was the location of the town of St. Anthony, which was annexed by Minneapolis in 1872.

East Hennepin Avenue runs through the middle of the neighborhood, which means it is situated in parts of both Northeast and Southeast Minneapolis. The neighborhood is bounded by Central Avenue, 2nd Avenue NE, and the river. Due to its proximity to Downtown, the area has seen a wave of gentrification in recent years; with shopping complexes and upscale condominiums built in the area. The area is the home to DeLaSalle High School on Nicollet Island.
