Nicollet Island breaks up a riverfront walk with gardens, public art and a promenade looking toward the first dam on the Mississippi. The island connects naturally to Historic Main Street and Boom Island Park, allowing a more varied route than a single bridge crossing.
What to look for
Walk the island promenade for a view of the first dam on the Mississippi.
Useful to know
Allow about 45 minutes for the promenade, garden and public-art paths.
A pedestrian bridge links the park with Boom Island; Historic Main Street is another nearby continuation.
