Location: 611 E Franklin Avenue
A Public History of Interstate 35W
Join us for A Public History of I-35W. The construction of I-35W connected people across Hennepin County while also displacing hundreds of South Minneapolis residents. Greg Donofrio and Denise Pike of the Heritage Studies and Public History Program at the University of Minnesota are leading a research project that looks into the history of the I-35W corridor.
Come hear about what they’ve learned in the early stages of their research, including stories and actions of people living along this corridor. Attendees will also learn about ways they can get involved in this collaborative community history project.
This event is part of the 35W@94: Downtown to Crosstown project between 43rd St. and 15th St. in Minneapolis. More info: mndot.gov/35w94
