Duluth

Also known as: Duluth, MN, Duluth, Minnesota

Minnesota's port city (~85,000) at the western tip of Lake Superior — the largest freshwater port in the world by tonnage. Originally Anishinaabe (Ojibwe) territory; the Mesabi-Iron-Range mining era and Lake Superior shipping shaped the city through the 20th century. The directory's Duluth anchor is Whole Foods Co-op (1970), one of the country's senior food cooperatives, with two locations and 170 local-vendor partnerships.

What this is

Duluth sits at the western tip of Lake Superior, where the lake meets the St. Louis River estuary. Originally Anishinaabe (Ojibwe) territory; [[san-francisco|the city]] grew through mining (Mesabi Iron Range to the north) and [[great-lakes|Great Lakes]] shipping in the 19th and 20th centuries. The contemporary identity is built around the lake, the substantial outdoor-recreation economy, the University of Minnesota Duluth, and a long-running independent natural-foods culture anchored by Whole Foods Co-op.
