Nicollet Island Inn

The Nicollet Island Inn combines the classic and the modern to produce a truly intimate  hotel, restaurant, bar, and banquet destination. Featured in USA Today, Conde Nast Traveler, Gourmet, Bon Appetit, the New York Times and many regional publications, the Nicollet Island Inn offers a quiet oasis along a storied river, near the heart of Downtown Minneapolis, one of America’s most dynamic cities. 

Today’s Nicollet Island Inn evokes charm and ambiance while showering its guests with modern conveniences. Its every historic detail—from antique appointments and stained-glass windows to hand-carved woodwork and a glass-enclosed elevator (with the original operator’s seat)—harkens back to a time when street cars roamed the by-ways of a town still in its infancy.

The Inn is a charming and elegant destination for corporate meetings and cocktail hours, family celebrations, bridal showers, baby shows, bachelorette parties, and wedding receptions. Contact Events@NicolletIslandInn.com today for information on private dining rooms for groups of 8-24 or banquet hall rental for up to 175 guests.

http://peopleservingpeople.org/

From the People Serving People website:

Our Mission: To serve homeless children and their families and provide new opportunities for healthy, stable family life.

People Serving People achieves its mission and goals by providing emergency housing and community services that assist families experiencing homelessness in becoming self-sufficient and reconnected with the community. In a safe, secure and sober environment, PSP provides services which cultivate independence and accountability.

What distinguishes PSP from other emergency shelters is the broad range of on-site programs and services designed to address common barriers that homeless families are faced with. To provide a new opportunity for families, it is necessary that we help them find ways to break through these barriers and stop patterns that lead to poverty and homelessness. Housing and employment issues are addressed, along with educational, emotional and life enrichment needs
