Just went to Kohl's at Knollwood to buy a pair of pants. Found out the store is closing Oct. 31. Anyone remember when it was Powers, 1955 - 1985?

For just over a year, we’ve been an ad hoc advisor for the creation of a new e-newsletter for the University of Minnesota’s Northwest Architectural Archives.

The first issue of “Renderings” just dropped, and it features an article about the Globe Mill in St. Louis Park. Enjoy.

Material from the Northwest Architectural Archives has grounded my writing for several articles over the decades, most recently regarding our Society’s research on the 1874 Globe Mill on Minnehaha Creek.
