Neighborhood Home Tour Each year Dayton's Bluff gears up for the annual neighborhood home tour sponsored by the cities of Minneapolis and St. Paul. Because there are more tour-worthy homes in Dayton's Bluff than the citywide event can accommodate, the neighborhood has traditionally produced its own special brochure with additional homes showing off the pick of the Bluff. This year the combined tours will be held on Saturday, April 24, from 10:00 am to 5:00 pm and Sunday, April 25, from 1:00 pm to 5:00 pm. Homes that will be on the Dayton's Bluff portion of the tour include 761 and 1002 East 3rd Street, 996 Burns Avenue, 723 Margaret Street, 401 Maple Street, 635 Bates Avenue, 402 Eichenwald Street and 619 North Street. Three of these homes will also be on the citywide tour. Minneapolis/St. Paul tour brochures can be picked up at the Dayton's Bluff library on East 7th Street in mid-April and Dayton’s Bluff tour brochures can be picked up at any of the homes listed above during the hours of the tour. Many people come here year after year to see the diverse offerings of the community. Some of these visitors like it so well that they have made Dayton's Bluff their home. Volunteers are needed for the home tour. Tasks include greeting people at the door, giving out brochures and information about Dayton’s Bluff, and helping the homeowners for a few hours either day. If you are interested, please email Karin@DaytonsBluff.org or call Karin at 651-772-2075.
