Prior to European settlement, indigenous people lived along the banks of the Mississippi for 10,000 years. Minneapolis grew up around the Mississippi River and became a city in 1866. The route that is now Marshall Street was one of the earliest trade routes through the area after the territory was opened up for European settlement in 1837. By the mid-1800s, both the Red River Oxcart Trail and the Military Trail paralleled the East Side of the river. One of the earliest settlers in the area, Pierre Bottineau, played a significant role in the development of the area. After selling his land in St. Paul, Bottineau purchased land and built a house on the riverbank above the head of Nicollet Island in 1845. Bottineau spent his life as a hunting and expedition guide, later staking a claim that would become the town of Osseo. The many expeditions that were led by Bottineau facilitated European settlement throughout the state. He continued to call St. Anthony his home until 1854. Marshall Street is now a mixed development of industrial, commercial and residential uses. The area grew rapidly and included the rise of milling, lumber, railroads, breweries and other manufacturing. Its growth also was stimulated by massive European immigration from the latter half of the 19th century well into the 20th. Immigration to this area was fueled by the lure of jobs and the opportunity to become a successful entrepreneur. The outcome was the growth of a strong working class community that kindled the economic growth of Minneapolis. Small businesses, churches and schools sprung up to serve the growing population. Stately riverfront homes were built for the emerging business owners and managers.
A Swedish settlement developed in Northeast Minneapolis near its flour mills, lumber yards, breweries, foundries and railroad repair shops. By the turn-of-the-century, Swedes dominated the area from Broadway to Columbia Park.
Prior to the 1870's, Nicollet Island had seen limited development. An access road to the Hennepin Avenue bridge cut across the southern part of the island in the 1854 and the St. Paul & Pacific RailRoad cut across the northern part of the island in 1867. In the 1860's, there were 20 houses on the island, most of them on the northern half. This part of the island also had several limestone quarries and beer storage caves. After William Eastman and John Merriam bought the island in 1865, they offered to sell it to the city for a park, but the park proposal was turned down and they sold residential lots to middle-class citizens, but in the 1870's, they encouraged wealthy citizens to settle on the island. William Eastman brought waterpower to Nicollet Island in 1879 through the use of an overhead cable. Eastman, along with the DeLaittre and King families, built mansions on the island. Eastman also built several townhouses in the middle of the island and sold them to influential people such as J. B. Bassett. By the mid-1880's, about 40 residences had been built on Nicollet Island as well as three four-story masonry townhouses, one with 30 units, one with 20 units, and one with 8 units. In the late nineteenth century, north Nicollet Island became a middle class neighborhood. The Eastman townhouses were divided into apartments. A frame schoolhouse was built at the turn of the century. Joel Bean Bassett (1817-1912,) the son of Daniel Bassett and Abigail Bean Bassett, members of the Society of Friends, was born in Wolfboro/Wolfborough, New Hampshire, was educated in a private school and at the Brewster Academy, worked on a farm until 1838, taught school in New Hampshire, engaged in the lumber business in Maine, came to Minnesota in 1849, settled initially in St. Paul, arrived in St. Anthony in 1850, settled in Minneapolis in 1850, homesteaded the land at the mouth of the current Bassett Creek in 1852, built his first house north of the creek on a small knoll near the mouth, established a farm, and lived there until 1856, when he sold the land north of the creek, subsequently built a new house south of the creek, was the first judge of probate in Hennepin County in 1852, was a Hennepin County Commissioner in 1852, married Amelia/Aurilia/Aurelia B. Carpenter, the daughter of Washington Carpenter, in 1853 at Lincoln, Maine, began in the lumber business in Minnesota in 1855, was the mayor of St. Anthony, Minnesota, in 1857, organized the J. B. Bassett Lumber Company in 1859, was the president of the J. B. Bassett Lumber Company until 1895, erected the Columbia flour mill, organized and directed the Mississippi & R. R. Boom Company, was vice president of the Northwestern Consolidated Milling Company, was a member of the 16 member Minnesota Territorial Council, representing Carver County, the former Davis County, and Hennepin County in 1857, was an Indian agent at the Chippewa Agency, Crow Wing, Minnesota, from 1865 until 1869, was aa Minneapolis alderman from 1872 until 1874 and from 1877 until 1878, was the president of the Minneapolis Lumber Association, retired from active business in 1896, oversaw the removal of the Ojibwe bands to the White Earth, Minnesota, Reservation, was a Mason in 1858, was an alderman on the Minneapolis city council from 1872 until 1875, was initially a Quaker, was a member of the First Universalist church of Minneapolis, resided at 3 Grove Street in 1907, officed at the Lumber Exchange Building in 1907, and died in Los Angeles. Amelia B. Carpenter Bassett and Joel B. Bassett had one child, William L. Bassett. Joel B. Bassett resided at the Nimocks/Bassett House, located at 30 Grove Street. A sawmill was built just south of Bassett's Creek in 1856 by Pommeroy, Bates & Company and was operated by J. B. Bassett and his brother-in-law, Joseph Canney. It was the first steam-powered sawmill and first sawmill equipped with a circular saw on the west side. It also contained a muley saw. The mill was damaged by a boiler explosion in 1856 soon after it went into operation and was destroyed by a fire in 1859. Joel B. Bassett, and William L. Bassett, copartners under the name of J. B. Bassett & Co., the Pine River Logging & Improvement Company, and John L. Pillsbury and Charles A. Smith, copartners as C. A. Smith & Company, were found liable in a lawsuit in the nature of trover to recover damages for an alleged wrongful entry upon the Mississippi Band of Chippewa's reservation and the cutting and removing of certain pine timber there that was unsuccessfully appealed to the U. S. Supreme Court in Pine River Logging & Improvement Company v. United States, 186 U.S. 279 (1902.) In 1881, Joel Bean Bassett, with Loren Fletcher (1833-1919,) Charles Morgridge Loring (1833-1922,) William D. Washburn, Sumner W. Farnham, James A. Lovejoy and Otis Arkwright Pray, co-founded the Minnesota Electric Light and Electric Motive Power Company, which later became the Minnesota Brush Electric Company. J. B. Bassett, E. C. Whitney, and Samuel Hill were the president, vice president and treasurer, and secretary respectively of the Mississippi & Rum River Boom Company, located at 4 Lumber Exchange in 1890-1891. Major J. B. Bassett was the Indian agent for the Mississippi Band of Chippewa at the time of their removal to the White Earth, Minnesota, reservation in 1868. After Minneapolis was incorporated in 1856, J. B. Bassett sold his land near Bassett Creek to the city. In 1865, William Eastman and John Merriam acquired Nicollet Island and they sued the St. Anthony Company, which relied on shafts and ropes running from water wheels on the dam to supply power to the mills rather than canals, to force the removal of the east-side mills, claiming that the installations infringed on their water rights. In 1867, the St. Anthony Company and the Nicollet Island owners compromised, the company was allowed flowage, dam and boom privileges on the island's shore, and Eastman and Merriam were allowed to draw enough water to create 200 horse power for use at their own mills. Eastman and Merriam also were permitted to excavate a tunnel under Nicollet and Hennepin Islands for their tailrace and, with two additional partners, began excavating a 6-foot by 6-foot tunnel cut through 2,500 feet of sandstone for the tailrace in 1868. On October 4, 1869, after they had tunneled through 2,000 feet of sandstone, bringing them as far as the toe of Nicollet Island, the tunnel began to leak, the roof of the tunnel sank in, the river broke through the limestone at the upper end of the project, forming a large whirlpool that sucked everything nearby into the tunnel, enlarging the width of the tunnel to 90 feet and increasing its depth to 16.5 feet, Hennepin Island began to sink, and St. Anthony falls were in danger of collapsing. A succession of large rafts of timber were built, were floated over the whirlpool filled with dirt, rocks and other debris, and sunk into the hole. After the loss of several mills and the failure of temporary dams and various attempted plugs, in 1876, the St. Paul District Office of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers became involved and after the failure of several other attempted solutions, Congress appropriated sufficient funds and the Corps began the construction of a cutoff wall or dike, a new apron to protect the edge of the falls, and two dams above the falls. In 1879, more destruction was done to St. Anthony Falls when logging companies ran four and a half million feet of logs down the waterfall, damaging the reconstructed dike and apron. Finally, the apron broke in 1887 when too many logs went through the narrow channel and tore the plank deck and the U. S. Army Corps of Engineers withdrew their involvement from the falls. It was not until 1937 that the Corps made further improvements to St. Anthony Falls. William Eastman was a member of the first Minneapolis Park Board in 1883, which was appointed from the Board of Trade, the Chamber of Commerce, and the City Council, and included Charles Loring, Dorilus Morrison, John S. Pillsbury, Eugene W. Wilson, Samuel H. Chute, John C. Oswald, William Eastman, George Brackett, Judson A. Cross, Daniel Basset, A. C. Austin, and Andrew C. Haugan. John Conrad Oswald (1824-1905) was born in Oberaach Canton, Theirgan, Switzerland, emigrated to the United States in 1847, married Ursula Elizabeth Scheitlin (1824-1893) in New York City, New York, in 1847, initially settled in Western Virginia, moved to Minnesota in 1857, settled in Minneapolis, kept a general store until 1862, acquired the "Bryn Mawr" farm that eventually was included in the boundaries of the city, was a Major in the Minnesota State Militia, was the manufacturer of J.

Marie & Atlantic RailRoad, was a Democrat, and was a member of the Minnesota Senate representing Hennepin County (District 30) from 1887 until 1891. John Conrad Oswald and Ursula Elizabeth Scheitlin Oswald were the parents of Matilda Ann Oswald (Mrs. Theophil) Basting, Lisette Sophie Oswald (Mrs. Floyd) Laraway, Bertha Maria Oswald, and Emma Oswald (Mrs. William L.) O'Brien.

In 1983, the Park Board and the Minneapolis Community Development Agency (MCDA) cut a complex deal balancing competing interests: park lovers, history buffs, island residents and DeLaSalle High School, giving some residents a 99-year lease to rehab historic homes that were located on parkland. The Park Board was required to "make its best efforts" to build an "outdoor neighborhood recreational and athletic facility" on parkland near De LaSalle - in apparent contradiction to the 1979 open space agreement. In 1955, when the city began cleaning up "Skid Row" and dislocating down-and-out residents, some went to the next-cheapest spot, which was Nicollet Island.

The current owner of record is the Diocese Of St Paul and the current taxpayer of record is DeLasalle High School. DeLaSalle High School is the only Catholic high school in the City of Minneapolis. It is named for St. John Baptist de La Salle, who was the founder of the Brothers of the Christian Schools (i. e. the Christian Brothers) religious order. In 1900, Archbishop John Ireland broke ground for the Catholic secondary school. The initial faculty was three teaching Christian Brothers and the initial student body had 50 boys. By 1907, an addition had been added to the original school building, and in 1914, Archbishop Ireland purchased the adjoining King property to provide space for eventual expansion, with enrollment already at 352 boys. The initial school was a commercial school, but became a college preparatory school in 1920. In 1950, the Christian Brothers moved into their new residence facing Grove Street and continue to live in the community on the top two floors of the building. The first floor houses the school's Development, Alumni and Admissions offices. Enrollment at the DeLaSalle High School doubled to over 800 by 1952. Peak enrollment was 1651 boys in 1964. In 1971, the original commercial school building burned to the ground. The area of the original building, on Grove Street and West Island Avenue, is now called Founder's Park, and a statue of St. John Baptist de La Salle stands in this park. Also in 1971, with the closing of the all-girl St. Anthony of Padua High School in northeast Minneapolis, DeLaSalle High School opened its enrollment to girls. By 1975, enrollment at the co-educational DeLaSalle High School had dipped to 475 students. Due to the great efforts of successive chief administrators in the 1970's, Brother Cyril Litecky and Brother Basil Rothweiler, the school launched an annual giving campaign with its loyal base of alumni and friends to help meet the costs of operating the school and to provide financial assistance to those students in need. The school reached a 70-year low of 306 students in 1990-91. A 1955 alumnus, Brother Michael Collins, returned as school president in 1991, and the school has since prospered, with enrollment at over 600 students.

1212 Marshall Street: Bottineau Library. The 12,000 sq. ft. Pierre Bottineau Library was once the Grain Belt brewery's Mill Wright Shop and Wagon Shed. It replaces a rented storefront library that was established in 1957. Pierre Bottineau Library was originally the Logan Park branch and was renamed after Pierre Bottineau (1816/1817-1895), a figure prominent in the early settlement of northeast Minneapolis and northwest Minnesota. Pierre Bottineau was the son of a French-Canadian fur trader and an Ojibway mother. Pierre Bottineau either was born in North Dakota in a hunting camp near what became Grand Forks, North Dakota, or was born in the North West Territories of Canada and grew up working on the Red River around Pembina, Dakota Territory, and the English colonies. His father, Charles Joseph Bottineau, Sr./Joseph Bottineau (1776-1824,) was French Protestant and his mother, Martha Ahdik "Clear-Sky" Songab, was a Lake-of-the-Woods Ojibwe. Martha Clear-Sky reportedly lived to an advanced age and died at Pierre Bottineau's home in Osseo, Minnesota, the respected matriarch of a very extended family. Her mother was Ojibwe and her father was a captured Dakota/Sioux warrior. During his life, Pierre Bottineau learned to speak French, Dakota, Ojibwe, Cree, Mandan, Winnebago and English. He apparently made money in all of them. Pierre Bottineau hunted, trapped, voyageured, guided, and then got married in 1836 and moved in from the prairies and settled at Fort Snelling on the Mississippi River. Pierre Bottineau worked for the American Fur Company at Mendota, just across the Minnesota River from the Fort. Bottineau's boss was the man who seems to be in the middle of every critical event of Minnesota's formative years, Henry Hastings Sibley. Bottineau married Jennie/Genevieve Larance/Laurence ( -1851,) the mixed race daughter of John Baptiste Laurence and Louise Montagnaise, in 1836. In 1842, Pierre Bottineau began an operation running Mackinaw transport boats upriver from St. Anthony Falls, Minnesota, the site of Fort Snelling's millworks. When the Minnesota Territory was organized in 1849, Bottineau was appointed Supervisor of Roads for Ramsey County, which at that time included St. Anthony, Minnesota, and then took over the trading post at Elk River, Minnesota. Pierre Bottineau married again in 1852, to Martha Gervais (1837- ,) the daughter of Pierre Louis Gervais and Marie Tremblay, and founded Osseo, Minnesota. Pierre Bottineau was the father of 24 children, 10 by his first wife and 14 by his second wife. During 1863-1864, Bottineau scouted for General Sibley's military expedition into the Dakota Territory and guided Captain Fisk's expedition to Montana. Bottineau eventually moved "out of town" with 119 families from St. Paul and founded Red Lake Falls, Minnesota, east of Grand Forks, North Dakota, in 1876 and it was there that he died. The Bottineau library was funded by $3 million in 2000 Library referendum funds, a $500,000 grant from the Minnesota Historical Society's State Historic Preservation Office, and an additional $110,000 in Neighborhood Revitalization Program (NRP) funding from the Sheridan and St. Anthony West neighborhoods. The remodeled building was designed by RSP Architects, Ltd. The 1930 city directory indicates that the Motor Haulage Company was located at the former nearby 1214 Marshall Street NE.

1215 Marshall Street NE: Grain Belt Brewery; The brewery complex was built in 1891 and closed on Christmas Day in 1975. It began its life as the Orth Brewery in 1850 at 1228 Marshall Street NE. It was the second brewery started in the Minnesota Territory and was founded by John Orth. In 1870, Anton Zahler built the City Brewery into the bluff at the intersection of Bluff Street and 20th Avenue South. In 1875, August Noerenberg joined Zahler and, in 1880, August's brother, Frederick Noerenberg, became sole owner of the brewery. The Kranzlein and Mueller Brewery was established in the 1860's in the "Brewery Flats" section and was subsequently renamed the Heinrich Brewery, when John G. Koehnlein sold the business to John B. Miller/Mueller and Mueller partnered with Adolph Heinrich in 1874. The Minneapolis Brewery was built by John G. Kranzlein/Koehnlein and J. B. Mueller in 1866. Adolph Heinrich became the sole owner of the Minneapolis Brewery in 1884 and proceeded to rebuild much of the complex. The Noerenberg Brewery was established in 1870. In 1891, Noerenberg joined his City Brewery and his north Minneapolis Germania Brewery with Orth's Brewery and Heinrich's Minneapolis Brewery to form the Minneapolis Brewing and Malting Company. This company built the Grain Belt Brewery in northeast Minneapolis in 1892. The Minneapolis Brewing Company operated under this name until 1967, when it was renamed Grain Belt Breweries, Inc. an homage to the Midwest. The brewery operated successfully at the site, brewing 500,000 barrels annually by 1900. During Prohibition, the Minneapolis Brewing and Malting Company was able to remain open for several years producing "near beer" and soft drinks, but closed from 1927 until the repeal of Prohibition in 1933. The company reached a sales peak in 1957, and through acquisition of an Omaha, Nebraska, brewery, achieved the status of 22nd in national sales. The Minneapolis Brewing Company survived competition, fires, Prohibition, wars, strikes, and changing public tastes, but it couldn't survive the take over mania of the 1970s. Just eight months after acquiring Grain Belt Brewery in 1975, Irwin Jacobs (1941- ,) a vice-president of a bag manufacturer and Minnesota’s most infamous deal-closer, closed it down and sold off its assets, mainly as scrap. Jacobs denied that he had bought the brewery to close it down and use the riverfront land for other purposes, but he was denied permission to demolish the buildings by neighborhood activists led by Jeanette May. The community successfully protested the demolition of the structure, and Jacobs eventually donated the empty shell to the city, which has owned it for nearly 25 years. Its deteriorated state and unusual interior design have made it difficult to attract private investment. The Grain Belt brand survives, however, and is gaining popularity again. Subsequently, it was brewed at the Minnesota Brewing Company brewery in St. Paul until that brewery closed. The label was sold to the Schell Brewing Company in the summer of 2002. In 1963, an "old world garden" and a fountain were built on the corner. Tourists flocked to the 18-foot fountain. Many weddings were held near the fountain, and the park was a community meeting spot. The 1930 city directory indicates that the Minneapolis Brewing Company was located at this address. The 18,676 square foot building has been converted by the Minneapolis Community Development Agency (MCDA) for office/professional/service use. The structure had a 2001 estimated market value of $661,000. The Grain Belt Brewery complex was designated as a local historic district by the Minneapolis City Council in August 1977. New construction in the district and any changes to the exterior of the historic buildings within the district must be reviewed by the Minneapolis Heritage Preservation Commission (HPC). The brewery district was also listed on the National Register of Historic Places by the National Park Service. Julius J. Heinrich (1859- ,) the son of John Heinrich and Minnie Borchert Heinrich, was born in Wisconsin, moved to Minnesota in 1865, settled in Minneapolis, was engaged in the brewery business, was the president of the Phoenix Laundry Company, was a Democrat, was twice a candidate for mayor of Minneapolis, was the Hennepin County register of deeds from 1890 until 1892, was an unsuccessful Democratic People's Party candidate for Minnesota Secretary of State in 1896 and 1898, and was a state oil inspector from 1899 until 1901. Adolph C. Heinrich (1858-1895,) the son of John Heinrich and Minnie Borchert Heinrich, was born in Prairie du Chien, Wisconsin, moved to Minneapolis in 1865, was initially associated with his father's meat market, joined his father's brewery enterprise, married Mary E. Mueller, a daughter of John B. Mueller and Rosie Ann Schmidt Mueller, in 1879, was the partner of his father-in-law in a brewery, the Mueller-Heinrich Brewing Company, was a member of the Knights of Pythias, and was a member of the Independent Order of Odd Fellows. Adolph C. Heinrich and Mary E. Mueller Heinrich had two children, John A. Heinrich, the secretary and treasurer of the Haywood box factory, and George W. Heinrich, the president of the Heinrich Chemical Company. Frederick Noerenberg subsequently moved to Wayzata, Minnesota, and in 1972, his daughter, Lora Noerenberg Hoppe, an avid horticulturalist, willed the property to the Hennepin County/Three Rivers park system, the family home was removed on family wishes, but the estate's original boathouse and barn both still exist. In 1993, the Noerenberg estate's original geometric garden beds were redesigned and, in 1994, a new garden layout with wide brick walkways was finished.
