Every street in Minneapolis - thankfully - subscribes to a pretty simpleJim,
plan.
All buildings on streets/avenues running north-south will have addresses
ending in an even number on the west side and an odd number on the east
side of that street/avenue.
For streets/avenues running east-west, the buildings on the south will
have an address ending with an even number, buildings on the north side
of the roadway will end with an odd number.
Even if there are no buildings on the roadway, that numbering system is still in effect and yes, you can be ticketed!!
Does anyone know of any exceptions to this rule?

I think you need your first cup of coffee, or you need sleep (your posting says it was written at 1:46AM). As I'm sure you really know, EVEN numbers are on the NORTH side of east-west avenues/streets, here in Fulton and everywhere else that I know of in Minneapolis. Your message has it reversed.
Odd: east and south sides of all streets, no matter their names. Even: west and north sides of all streets, no matter their names.
The only challenge comes on streets which run don't run near the 4 cardinal compass points, i.e. all of downtown, parts of northeast and all of southeast, where the streets run roughly parallel and perpendicular to the river, instead of really north-south and east-west.
