'Odin at The Njord' Duluth Vacation Rental Boasts Brilliant Views

Many residents and Duluth visitors alike have spent some time walking along the Lakewalk, tracing the outline of Lake Superior's shoreline in Duluth. The trail offers great views and easy access to many Canal Park and Duluth area attractions, including food, beverages, and shopping at the Fitger's complex and nearby Lakewalk staples Portland Malt Shoppe and Va Bene Cafe.

Right in the same neighborhood, between Portland Malt Shoppe and Va Benne, is a building that was once home to a business. Living Art Studio, a tattoo shop that moved to the Woodland neighborhood, is what could be seen from Superior Street while passing by.

While there hasn't looked to be a lot of activity on the Superior Street side of the building (seen above) since they left, I noticed what looked like some nice living space through the windows on the lake side of the building and decided to investigate.
