North St. Paul is a city in Ramsey County, Minnesota, east of the city of Saint Paul. The population was 11,929 at the 2000 census.
North St. Paul is a distinct city, and not a neighborhood of nearby St. Paul. This fact also contributes to a major difference from typical suburbs; rather than being composed of new developments and urban sprawl, many of the structures in town are older, including a downtown area of brick storefronts.
At the corner of Highway 36 and Margaret Street resides the North Saint Paul Snowman. It is the official city logo of North Saint Paul.
Geography
According to the United States Census Bureau, the city has a total area of 3.0 square miles (7.8 km©÷), of which, 2.9 square miles (7.5 km©÷) of it is land and 0.1 square miles (0.3 km©÷) of it (3.67%) is water. Silver Lake and Casey Lake are the city's largest bodies of water and both have large, adjacent parks.
History
In 1870, Henry A. Castle founded Castle Site along the shore of Silver Lake extending to the south and west. In 1887, the town was incorporated as a village and renamed North St. Paul. The 1880s also brought Soo Line, originally to transport grain from nearby Minneapolis to Sault Ste. Marie.
City founder Henry Castle had seven children: Harry, James, Charles, Helen, Margaret, Ann, and Mary. Henry Street is named after Castle, along with Charles Street, Helen Street, and Margaret Street . No streets were named after his other remaining children.
