Gateway to Red Wing marker in Levee Park
On [this date], Mayor A.P. Pierce announced: “Our riverfront will be modeled somewhat after that of which Winona is so justly proud, but will be even more handsome and more imposing by reason of our magnificent background of urban scenery and rustic hills.” The adjacent depot was opened in 1905 and Levee Park was completed in 1906 with a grant from the Chicago, Milwaukee, St. Paul Railroad.
