Dear President Shawalter and Council Members:
The Heritage Preservatiorr Corrrnission was informed by the Minnesota Historical
Society of its intention to nominate the Minnesota Museum of Art, 305 St. Peter
Street, to the National Register of Historic Places. Since the City Council
has'asked the Heritage Preservation Conenission to cornnerrt on National Register
nominations in Saint Paul , the Cor�nntssion reviewed this nomination at a recent .
meeting.
Because the Minnesota Museum of Art is already designated as a St. Paul Heritage

a resolution which recorrmends supporting the placement of the museum on the
National Register. The owners of the building requested the National Register
nomination. .

placement of the Minnesota Museum of Art on the National Register.
I have attached the Heritage Preservation Commission's resolution and a �opy of
the Minnesota Historical Society's April 28th letter to the Council . Thank you.
Sincerely,
