West Duluth

Here are some pictures, taken by me, between 2005 and 2010.

They're not always the best, but here goes:

Any comments on this fascinating neighborhood?

Great photo tour, tvdxer!

This is a part of the city that is very often ignored...and I'm willing to bet that most people visiting from the Twin Cities aren't even aware that this area exists. It's got a very nicely-preserved business district. Isn't the Lake Superior Zoo in West Duluth, too?

Hopefully you can get around to taking some more shots! Duluth is highly underrepresented in the Midwest subforum.

Looks great! Some nice looking neighborhoods and a tough, hanging-in-there business district. I like the shots with the big hills in the background - as well as the ones looking toward the lake. Duluth seems to be a solid, mostly blue collar city that continues to do a good job of anchoring the western point of Lake Superior and the Great Lakes.

For some reason I expected to see at least one photo with snow in it. Nice little city you have there.
