Albert Lea is a city located in Freeborn County in southeast Minnesota. As of the 2000 census, the city had a total population of 18,356. It is the county seat of Freeborn County. The city is at the junction of I-90 and I-35, about 90 miles south of the Twin Cities. It is on the shores of Fountain Lake, which is part of the Shell Rock River flowage and Albert Lea Lake. The city's early growth was based upon agriculture, farming support services and manufacturing. At one time it was the site of Cargill 's headquarters. Other manufacturing included Edwards Manufacturing, Scotsman Ice Machines and Universal Milking Machines. Like many U.S. towns much of the manufacturing base has diminished. A long-time center of the city's job opportunity was the Wilson & Company meat packing plant, later known as Farmstead and Farmland. This facility was destroyed by fire. 6. The city is named after Albert Miller Lea, a colonel in the Confederate Army. In 1835, Lea surveyed southern Minnesota and northern Iowa, including the current site of Albert Lea, while serving as a lieutenant in the U.S. Army. Captain Nathan Boone, a son of Daniel Boone, was the scout for Lea's expedition. Featured Homes in Albert Lea, MN
