Historic Preservation Month: Downtown Corvallis Walking Tour

The tour will begin in the Corvallis Museum's Education Room with a quick history of Corvallis prior to the walk. Once a shipping point, warehouse district, and industrial area, today's Riverfront Park honors downtown Corvallis' early past. Appreciate the sites that built the early local economy. Linger where historic rehabilitation projects fostered dynamic retail growth along 2nd Street. Learn how downtown changed, and yet remained the same inviting place to meet friends, dine, shop and conduct business.

  • Meet at the Corvallis Museum.
  • Guide: Mary Gallagher

(Please join in after the tour to celebrate Mary Gallagher at her Retirement Party. The Retirement Party starts at 5 p.m. and takes place at the Corvallis Museum.)

This event is part of Historic Preservation Month.
