    November 2, 2015

    In the past three years, Red Wing has been named one of the Top 25 Historic Destinations in the world by the National Geographic Traveler. In addition, it was also one of the 2008 Dozen Distinctive Destinations. The Minnesota city “has a unique ability to support a growing and diverse economy while maintaining its historic, small town charm.”

     

    Red Wing is just 45 minutes away from Minneapolis/St. Paul and Rochester, which gives it the best of both worlds: “small town charm and immediate proximity to the metropolitan areas.” There is about 46 acres available of prime development land that is ready for businesses to build in the community that is perfect for their companies.

     

    In addition to being near the metropolitan areas, the Mississippi River is also right outside your back door. Red Wing, Minnesota also offers “four golf courses in easy proximity, an enterprising school district, new housing developments, and 890 acres of parks,” holding something for everyone.
