Projects of the Red Wing Area Fund:
Red Wing Depot
In 1991 the City and the Area Fund collaborated to make our Depot the facility it is today. The City acquired the Depot from the SOO Line Railroad. The Area Fund leased the property and renovated it. In March of 2004 we purchased the Depot from the City for their cost. Since then we have contributed $50,455 for operations and $21,000 for additional renovation and repairs. We are grateful to the Minnesota Historical Society for their matching grant of $8,953 for the 2009 renovation. The Depot is the home of the Red Wing Arts Association and the Visitors and Convention Bureau.
