Its boundaries are East 38th Street to the north, Chicago Avenue to the east, East 42nd Street to the south, and Interstate 35W to the west. It is entirely located within Minneapolis City Council Ward 8[3] and legislative district 62B.[4]

The neighborhood was named for William Cullen Bryant, an American poet who lived from 1794 to 1878.
