Historic Photo of the Week

This photo comes to us by way of Ray Harris, who snapped this in the early- to mid-1970s. It’s of the building that now is home to Hennepin Lake Liquors, located at 1200-1208 West Lake Street. The building was built in 1946.

How cities work and change, how they are the product of their inhabitants and outside forces, and the resulting livability keep me thinking and dreaming about the future. I work in urban real estate development, am Past President of an Uptown business organization, grew up in Uptown, was on an Uptown neighborhood association Board, and am an Uptown and Lyn-Lake historian.
