Field is a neighborhood in the Nokomis community in south Minneapolis, Minnesota. The neighborhood is bordered by East 46th Street on the north, Chicago Avenue on the east, Minnehaha Parkway on the south, and Interstate 35W on the west. Field shares a neighborhood organization with the Regina and Northrop neighborhoods, called the Field Regina Northrop Neighborhood Group (FRNNG). [3]

It is part of Minneapolis City Council wards 8 and 11 [4] and state legislative district 63B. [5]

Field takes its name from Field Elementary School, [6] a school for grades 3-5 named after Eugene Field, a writer of children's poetry. The largely-residential neighborhood is characterized by small, two-bedroom, pre-1940s homes made from stucco, brick, and stone. Chicago Avenue is the main commercial thoroughfare in the neighborhood.
