I think a fairer way to look at it is when the areas were platted -- not when the current structure was built.

Highway 7 (although not technically a freeway, a major principal arterial) was more what came to mind. The plat map of the area near Lake St and Hwy 7 is pretty dramatic to see the highway right-of-way overlaid on the parcels.

Highway 100 is older, but you can also see parcels cut short and combined along Mackey Ave/Utica Ave.

I have no idea if those parcels were built out at the time the highway ROW was purchased -- but the fact that the neighborhoods were built around an intact grid, and the highway is a retrofit, makes it pretty similar to the situation in Minneapolis.
