Were the names Cedar Lake, Lake of the Isles and Dean Parkway simply too irresistible? Cedar-Isles-Dean, as this elegant neighborhood is known, clearly took the easy way out when it came to christening their streets. But who can blame them? The neighborhood itself, nestled in the Calhoun-Isles community of Minneapolis, is as picturesque as its name suggests. It’s a haven for those who appreciate the finer things in life. But beneath the manicured lawns and stately homes, Cedar-Isles-Dean holds a hidden gem – a masterpiece by the legendary architect, Frank Lloyd Wright. Tucked away on the northernmost lot, almost swallowed by its verdant surroundings, lies the Henry J. Neils House. This 1951 creation, a symphony of wood and stone, blends seamlessly with the landscape, showcasing Wright’s genius for organic architecture. Even the carport, with its curious multicoloured marble wall, speaks of meticulous artistry. Cedar-Isles-Dean may be named for its lakes and parkways, but it’s Wright’s hidden treasure that truly captures the spirit of this sophisticated neighborhood.
