If you missed yesterday's lecture by Larry Millett — well, let's just say that there were many that did not!
The lecture was fascinating, focusing on:
- Entire lost districts, including the mansion district of the 1860s-70s in Lowertown and the Capitol Heights district. Did you know that there used to be a major water feature called Trout Creek at the edge of Lowertown, or that the topography by the Capitol was quite hilly?
- Individual lost properties on Summit:
242 Summit - Neill House
201 Summit - Kittson House
226 Summit - Wilder House
276 Summit - Jefferson House
288 Summit - Stickley House
545 Summit - Muir House
- Other lost properties throughout Saint Paul.
Hope to see you at the final lecture, on solar power, on May 14!
