Minneapolis History Pub Crawl: Washington Avenue
3 nights this summer: July 12th, August 2nd, August 30th.
Discover the richness of Minneapolis history, and slake your thirst with some fine beverages along a single road: Washington Avenue. Travel down this busy but underappreciated street to see the importance of railroads, warehousing, flour milling, immigration, entertainment, and vice to the story of the Mill City.
A trolley will take participants through the neighborhoods along Washington from 35W to Plymouth, with stops at significant historic places and two watering holes in historic buildings. Ages 21 and up only. Drink purchases are not included in the tour price. Drink specials will be made available at participating locations.
The tour begins and ends at Mill City Museum, 704 South Second Street, and runs from 7:00pm-9:00pm. The cost is $25 ($20 MHS members) and reservations are required. Call 612-341-7555 for tickets.
