Its boundaries are Broadway Street NE to the north, Interstate 35W to the east, East Hennepin Avenue to the south, and Central Avenue and Harrison Street NE to the west. Beltrami neighborhood and park are named after Giacomo Constantino Beltrami, an early 19th-century Italian jurist, scholar and explorer.
Beltrami covers an area of 0.267 square miles, and has a population of approximately 1,312. Beltrami is located in City Council Ward 3, currently represented by council member Michael Rainville.
In 2023, the Beltrami and Northeast Park neighborhood associations voted to merge into the new Lower Northeast Neighborhoods Association. The two associations sought the merger to combine resources. Financial assistance from the city of Minneapolis had been declining. The nearby neighborhood associations of Logan Park and St. Anthony East declined to join the merged organization.
