Hastings: Where Two Rivers Meet
Hastings sits at the confluence of the Mississippi and St. Croix Rivers in Dakota County, about 30 miles southeast of Saint Paul. The spiral bridge, built in 1895 and demolished in 1951, was a unique corkscrew-shaped structure that allowed traffic to descend from the bluff to the riverfront. A replica column marks the site today.
The city's downtown along 2nd Street retains 19th-century commercial buildings and has benefited from its location as a day-trip destination from the metro. The Vermillion Falls, where the Vermillion River drops into the Mississippi valley, is a natural feature within the city limits.
Lock and Dam No. 2 spans the Mississippi at Hastings, creating a pool that extends upstream. The surrounding landscape of river bluffs, hardwood forests, and agricultural bottomland is some of the most scenic in the metro area. Hastings' population is about 22,500.
