The Hennepin County Library’s Tumblr account has a write-up of visits to the homes of the two rival originals: Matt’s and 5-8 Club.
Also, bonus pics of Matt’s Bar from 1953. If those pics were all you had to go on, do you think you could find Matt’s today? Some things don’t change much, eh?
It’s the cobblestones and streetcar tracks that gets me. In fact, that goes in the “names for my first album” bucket. Coblestones and StreetCar Tracks”.
