Willard-Hay is a neighborhood within the larger Near North community in the northwest side of the U.S. city of Minneapolis which is known locally as the "Northside". The neighborhood is often known as Willard-Homewood by residents; the portion south of Plymouth is Homewood. It is named after two elementary schools within its boundaries, Frances Willard and John Hay.
The boundaries are roughly Olson Memorial Highway on the south, Penn Avenue on the east, (though a small portion of the neighborhood is northeast of Penn and Plymouth) Broadway Avenue on the northeast and Theodore Wirth Park on the west.
It is primarily located in Ward 5, represented by city council member Jeremiah Ellison. A small portion in the northwest (north of 26th Ave) is in Ward 4, represented by LaTrisha Vetaw.[3] Willard-Hay is in Legislative District 59B,[4] represented by State Senator Bobby Joe Champion and State Representative Esther Agbaje.
The Homewood Historic district is located in Willard-Hay, bounded by Plymouth Avenue to the north, Penn Avenue to the east, Oak Park Avenue to the south and Xerxes Avenue to the west. This area was central to the North Side Jewish community beginning in the early 1910s.[5] It was designated by the city as a historic district on February 28, 2017[6] due to its rich Jewish history. This designation sparked some controversy among Homewood residents.[7] [8]
