Do you like thinking and talking about land use and history? What a silly question, of course you do. Well, we’re having a Streets.mn outing and you should come.

The Minnesota History Center recently opened a new exhibit called Suburbia. Through an exploration of building, living, and shopping in the suburbs, “guests are invited to look back and reflect on the successes and failures of Suburbia and what’s in store for the future.” Sounds neat, right?

WHAT: Group outing to the Suburbia exhibit.

WHERE: Minnesota History Center at 345 W. Kellogg Blvd in St. Paul.

WHEN: Tuesday, November 17th at 6pm.

WHO: Everyone is welcome.

COST: Free on Tuesdays! We might do a drink with appetizers afterwards.

HOW DO I GET THERE? I’ll be biking over from Minneapolis so you can join me if you’d like, comment here or on Twitter to stay on the loop. Otherwise, it’s right on the Green Line [Capitol/Rice Street stop].
