MINNETONKA, MN — For the first time in more than 33 years, Minnesota has a second official LEGO Store. The new location is now open at Ridgedale Center, located on Level 1, near Center Court, in Minnetonka.
Until now, the state’s only LEGO Store was at the Mall of America, where it first opened in 1992, the same year the mall debuted in Bloomington.
The new Ridgedale store gives West Metro families and LEGO fans a closer option for exploring sets, discovering exclusive collections, and enjoying hands-on building fun.
