The North Loop Warehouse District was the city’s warehouse and wholesaling district during the late 19th and early 20th centuries, growing when Minneapolis became a major distribution center for the upper Midwest. The area has retained its sense of time and place, with original bridges still in place, streets paved with bricks, and trains passing through daily on the track beds around which the area first developed. 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.
