	Hiawatha Line - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Hiawatha Line is a 12 mile (19 kilometer) light rail corridor in Minneapolis, Minnesota that extends to the southern suburb of Bloomington, in Hennepin County connecting downtown Minneapolis to the Minneapolis-St. Paul International Airport and the Mall of America, among other destinations.
		The line is named for Hiawatha Avenue, also known as Minnesota State Highway 55, which runs parallel to the train tracks for much of its distance.
		The Hiawatha Line opened 50 years and one week after the last regular-service streetcars ran in the city.
