Join Minneapolis Riverfront Corporation for a Guided Walk

No plans for 10:00am to 11:00am on Saturday, December 4?  How about some fresh air and exercise!

Experts are studying whether a waterfall may be restored to St. Anthony Falls’ East Channel, just below Main Street.  Join the Minneapolis Riverfront Corporation for a walk and information on this topic.

Restoring the East Channel Falls: Shaping our Riverfront Future
