History of Woodbury, Minnesota

Woodbury was originally named Red Rock, but was renamed Woodbury after it was realized that another Red Rock existed in Minnesota.[1] When first settled in 1844, the land was mostly timber but was converted to farmland. The township government was organized in 1858, and the first town hall built in 1876.
The first suburban housing development began in 1955, and the city has seen an increasing level of metropolitan expansion as the farmland has given way to developments and shopping malls.
