May 23, 2012, Wednesday - Grain Belt Brewery Tour with Preserve Minneapolis
Time: 5:30pm - 6:30pm
Location: Grain Belt Brewery, 1220 Marshall Street NE
Cost: $5.00
The Grain Belt Brew House, constructed in 1891, served as a local brewery until Christmas Day of 1975. When the last batch of Grain Belt beer rolled off the site, the buildings were permanently vacated. For more than twenty-five years the site was dormant.
In 1998 RSP Architects, Ryan Companies, and the Minneapolis Community Development Agency embraced the opportunity to make creative use of this historic landmark. Innovative designs were developed to utilize the unique interior and allowed for preservation of the six-story building’s distinctive architectural features as it was converted into design offices.
On this tour you will experience the awe-inspiring interiors of the Brew House and learn about its award-winning rehabilitation. Participation is limited. Register EARLY!
