Grand Avenue runs from West 7th out to Cretin Avenue. Each section of Grand seems to have it's own character. Wet Paint is located West of Snelling Avenue on the stretch of Grand that is near Macalaster College. The street narrows there for a bit and the shops give it a distinct personality. Those neighborhood businesses that I like to mention line the street making it a great area to shop, eat and buy from local businesses. The street changes with the neighborhoods it runs through. There isn't any other street like it in St. Paul. Grand Avenue has it's own business association and of course the annual Grand old days event. They always manage to have the snow put away by then.
