Rethos: Places Reimagined
Advancing Equity in Historic Preservation
To lead and inspire people to connect with historic places, promoting community vitality.
We believe in the power of community. So much of our support comes from:
NEIGHBORHOOD GROUPS who need advice on historic designations or saving important structures.
DEVELOPERS who support the need to work with legislators on the historic tax credits and seek us out for investment partnerships.
HOMEOWNERS who want to learn more through our unique classes and experiential tours.
MAIN STREET COMMUNITIES for a proven path to economic strength - and more.
And others who value the importance of historic spaces.
Highlights
We are the organization that runs Doors Open Minneapolis in May. We have an annual Wrecking Ball gala in October, and it is held in the historic Landmark Center. Drinking In History, an educational series with networking opportunities, is hosted by the historic Waldmann Brewery in Saint Paul on the second Monday of every other month. We also offer do it yourself classes. More information can be found at Rethos.org.
About
Discover the Power of Places with Rethos!
Located in the beautiful restored and repurposed Landmark Center in downtown, Saint Paul, Rethos: Places Reimagined is on a mission to preserve the places that shape our communities, culture, and connections. We believe that every building, every main street, and every neighborhood tells a story—and those stories matter. As the organizer for Doors Open Minneapolis and Main Streets, our work goes far beyond saving historic structures; we revitalize communities, fuel local economies, and empower individuals with the tools to preserve their heritage.
From hands-on workshops to advocating for preservation-friendly policies, Rethos transforms places into thriving, vibrant hubs of activity and pride. We champion sustainability and creativity, turning yesterday’s architecture into tomorrow’s opportunities.
Whether you’re a homeowner restoring your space, a business investing in your town’s future, or a history lover protecting what you cherish, Rethos is here for you.
