July 27, 2016, Wednesday - SuperALLEYfragilistic: A Tour of Public Alleys with Preserve Minneapolis
Time: 6:00pm
Location: Meet and start at Corner Coffee, 512 N 3rd Street
Join Preserve Minneapolis and the kickoff of Cincinnati-based Spring in Our Steps (SiOS) in Minneapolis with a free walking tour of public alley spaces!
We'll meet & start at Corner Coffee, where SiOS co-founder Christian Huelsman will lead us eastward over the Cedar Lake Trail and through a labyrinth of public alleys toward Hennepin Avenue. Select stops on the route will focus on alleys' relationships with historic structures in the Warehouse District, remaining or partially hidden historic infrastructure, and the value that improvements to our alleys can bring to our urban experience.
Spring in Our Steps is a Cincinnati-based 501(c)3 organization, committed to bringing a brighter future to the city’s pedestrian-scaled public spaces–such as public alleys, foot bridges, and hillside stairways–through cleanup, coordinated activities, and comprehensive planning.
We'll regroup at our post-tour meetup location (TBA) for tasty beverages & conversation about alley preservation!
