Built by the US Steel corporation as a company town, Morgan Park once functioned as its own community, with its own municipal services, separate from the City of Duluth. Even though the US Steel Plant closed 30 years ago, Morgan Park has its own unique sense of identity and community pride. Nestled off MN Highway 23 along the St. Louis River, Morgan Park is convenient to downtown Duluth. Because of the unique history of this community, This Old House named Morgan Park one of the 12 greatest places to buy an old house in the Midwest.
