St. Louis Park is a city in Hennepin County, Minnesota, United States. The population was 50,010 at the 2020 census. It is a first-ring suburb immediately west of Minneapolis. Other adjacent cities include Edina, Golden Valley, Minnetonka, Plymouth, and Hopkins. The Pavek Museum of Broadcasting, which has a major collection of antique radio and television equipment, is also in the city. Items range from radios produced by local manufacturers to the Vitaphone system used to cut discs carrying audio for the first "talkie", The Jazz Singer. In the mid-2020s, St. Louis Park experienced a significant surge in transit-oriented and commercial redevelopment, anchored heavily by the upcoming Southwest light rail line. The city's top-tier commercial spaces bucked broader metropolitan office vacancy trends; by late 2025, the West End district posted a vacancy rate of just 12.8%, the lowest major corridor vacancy in the Twin Cities metro. Major multi-family residential construction projects also advanced, including the $130 million, 380-unit Beltline Station project by Sherman Associates, and the 223-unit Terasă mixed-use redevelopment at the former 5401 Gamble Drive office site, which officially broke ground in early 2026. Additionally, municipal infrastructure updates during this period included the extensive Cedar Lake Road and Louisiana Avenue intersection improvements, which integrated new modern roundabout corridors.
