Located near historic St Anthony Main, Chute Square is home to the Ard Godfrey House, the oldest remaining wood frame home in the Twin Cities. It was originally built in 1848 in the Greek Revival style on Main Street and 2nd Avenue Southeast, but was moved a few times before finding its home at Chute Square. Now a museum run by the Woman’s Club of Minnesota, the building is free and open to the public on weekends between 1:00 p.m. and 4:00 p.m., June through August. MPRB is in the process of repairs to the Ard Godfrey House in 2021 and 2022. Workers repaired siding in 2021 and will return to paint the exterior in the fall of 2022. 8 Things to Know Before Visiting Ard Godfrey House
