Other Towns Suffer from an 'Absence of Northfield-ish-ness'

Streets.mn praises Northfield as 'a small town that has it all together.'

Northfield comes in for high praise in a new post at the urbanist blog site streets.mn:


"Can every town be more like Northfield? Probably not. It is the absence of Northfield-ish-ness in all the other towns in Minnesota that enable Northfield to be what it is. ...


"When we talk about accessibility, enabling movement is important, but just as important is having some place you want to go to. Northfield excels in the latter."
