3rd Lair Skatepark

Minneapolis, MN

 

One of the Midwest's best skateparks! 3rd Lair has been in business since 1997. In September of 2002 they moved from downtown Minneapolis to the suburb of Golden Valley, MN (minutes from downtown Minneapolis). Gone is the vert halfpipe due to the new buildings roof height. The park boasts a slamming street course, a mini ramp room and a sick wooden bowl! The bowl is flawless and FAST! If you are in Minneapolis, you have to visit this park!
There is a fee to skate and there are structured session times. Bikes are allowed, except not in the mini room and bowl (thank God!).
Refreshments and a pro shop are on site.
Directions, take I 394 West to the Louisiana St exit. Go right off exit to first light. Turn right on Market St. Follow Market St past the Menards store until you see Florida Ave. Turn Left on Florida (Taco Bell). 3rd Lair is located behind the Taco Bell.
There are some city buses that run to the Louisiana Street station. If you take the bus, you will need to get off at the Louisiana St. station and walk to the crossover bridge that spans I 394. That will put you at the intersection of Market and Florida Ave. Walk 1/2 a block to The 3rd Lair.
