In the volume and variety of his work, Clarence Johnston (1859-1936) still stands as Minnesota’s most prolific architect. In and near St. Anthony Park, Clarence Johnson and his firm are represented in many types, from homes and schools to institutional and religious spaces. We will see a couple of houses on Hillside and Knapp, one designed by Johnston and another by his son, Clarence Johnston, Jr. There are two Johnston churches in the neighborhood, a lost school addition and an unrealized plan for the Breck School, and buildings at the University Campus and on the State Fairgrounds. Our tour will take us past or near these interesting buildings.
