Restore Lilac Way is a dedicated organization in St. Louis Park, MN, that documents and preserves the rich history of Lilac Way and its seven historic parks along Highway 100. Built during the Great Depression by the WPA, Lilac Way was a 12.5 mile Showcase Section adorned with 7,000 lilac bushes, featuring unique beehive-shaped fireplaces and captivating rock gardens.
With a mission to restore and renew these iconic landmarks, Restore Lilac Way showcases the restored Graeser Park and renewed Lilac Park, which are home to the only two remaining beehive fireplaces. Additionally, visitors can explore the protected Rock Island Park, one of only two rock gardens in Minnesota. Discover the fascinating story of Lilac Way and support their efforts through their poster shop, featuring designs that celebrate the historic parks and their quirky beehive-shaped fireplaces.
