A Piece of History
The name Arden Hills is said to have come from Senator Joseph Hackney’s hobby farm, Arden Farms. Senator Hackney started the farm within the City limits back in 1906. The City was originally part of Mounds View Township. When the Township was organized, it included the present Shoreview, Arden Hills, New Brighton, Mounds View and parts of North Oaks and St. Anthony. Arden Hills was incorporated on February 14, 1951, in response to New Brighton’s request for annexation of the area. Over the next 20 years the boundaries of the City were formed through other annexation deals and land trades, forming the City boundaries as it exists today.
