NorShor Theatre
Duluth’s Grand Opera House (1883-1889) served as Duluth’s cultural centerpiece and seated over 1,000 people. In 1940, the Minnesota Amusement Company leased the Orpheum Theatre and the Orpheum Garage, then hired architects to convert the Vaudeville theater into a modern, art deco movie house.
ZEITGEIST
TEATRO & ZINEMA
The Zeppa Trusts developed the Zeitgeist Arts Center. The arts center helped begin the transformation of Duluth’s eastern downtown area into an arts and entertainment district, and has helped support scores of local, regional, and national artists of all kinds.
FITGERS
SPIRIT OF THE NORTH
Duluth's first brewery was started in 1857 a block and a half from our present site, and utilized a small, clear brook which later was known as Brewery Creek. His brewery grew, and in 1881 Michael Fink purchased the brewery and built a new, larger one on the present Fitger's site.
GREYSOLON BALLROOM
Built in 1925, Hotel Duluth was built as the largest hotel in the northwest. It was called “Metropolitan” or a “bit of New York in the northwest” for its grand architecture and design. With 500 rooms and fourteen stories, Hotel Duluth was the first luxury hotel of its kind.
