July 15, 2015, Wednesday - Warehouse District Walking Tour with Preserve Minneapolis

Time: 6:30pm

Location: Tour meets at 226 N Washington Avenue

Tickets

The North Loop Warehouse District was the city’s warehouse and wholesaling hub during the late 19th and early 20th centuries, a time when Minneapolis was a major distribution center for the upper Midwest. The area has retained its sense of time and place, with original bridges, brick-paved streets, and trains that still rattle through daily on the old track beds. The tour will explore the overall history of the district  and individual buildings and the architects who designed them.

This tour will walk less than one mile and will be guided by Rolf Anderson.
