Tonight 6-8pm – Virtual Happy Hour feat. Twin Cities Freeway History

!zoomers

Hey! We’re hosting another virtual happy hour tonight, from 6 to 8pm. Our special guest tonight will be Adam Froehlig, who is going to share some of his fascinating research on local freeway history around 7. If you like, you can ask all those burning questions you’ve been harboring about Interstate 335, the Midtown Greenway freeway, the Cedar Avenue highway, or (god forbid) Ayd Mill Road.

Here’s the link: https://us02web.zoom.us/j/89854983912

See you then.

In the meantime, gaze upon all the fun freeways we could have built in Minneapolis.
