Vintage Pavers  Contributor's Pick!       
These aren't any ordinary pavers down at the Water Street end of the Excelsior Streetcar Line. These are vintage 1906 pavers which were laid along Water Street itself when the Twin Cities Rapid Transit Company extended their interurban line to Excelsior. They now form a path from the Excelsior-Lake Minnetonka Historical Society's museum (located in the former Minneapolis & St. Louis depot) to the new Hennepin County Excelsior library. The ESL thus has a little more "street" to run their cars in, counting the former parking lot down at Morse Avenue to the east.
