Nicollet Island Inn

Minneapolis, Minnesota - Pen and Ink - 2014

‘The building that is now the Nicollet Island Inn was first constructed in 1893 as the Island Sash & Door Company. A year later it was nearly destroyed when a fire destroyed many of Nicollet Island’s structures. By the early 20th century, Minneapolis had become the center of the worlds’ flour and grain milling industry, and the Sash building then served as a home for several start-up milling companies. Later, the building was renovated by the Salvation Army in 1913 where it then served as a men’s shelter for the next 60 years. In the late 1970s, the Minneapolis Department of Parks and Recreation took ownership - after a careful restoration it was reborn as the Nicollet Island Inn’.
