Minneapolis Escorts: A splashier street

Posted by: minneapolisgirl | August 27, 2009 | No Comment |

Joyce Wisdom is pitching Lake Street as a tourist destination — a tough sell for an area that many metro residents consider a destination not for vacationers, but for prostitutes and drug dealers.
Wisdom, executive director of Lake Street Council, is spearheading an advertising campaign called Visit Lake Street. The goal is to redefine more than 70 blocks of Minneapolis’ Lake Street, which reaches from the Mississippi River, where it’s lined with ethnic Hispanic and African shops, to the shore of Lake Calhoun, where it’s home to fashion boutiques for Uptown hipsters.
Now that a four-year road construction project is finished and crime has dropped significantly, Lake Street is safer and more inviting than ever, Wisdom said in an interview.

“The image used to be that around every corner on Lake Street there are prostitutes and drug dealers,” Wisdom said.
