The Minneapolis and St. Louis Railway (M&StL) originally built the railroad tracks between Norwood and Morton circa 1880. Green Isle was platted in 1881, incorporating these northeast/southwest-oriented tracks. The town was named after the previously existing township, its name alluding to Ireland, the Emerald Isle, as many of its earliest settlers were from Ireland.
