Midway Chamber of Commerce

Description

History of the Midway Chamber of Commerce. Much of the destiny of the Midway area of St. Paul has been shaped by a dedicated group of businesspeople and residents who came together in 1919 to form the Midway Club, predecessor of the Midway Chamber of Commerce. By that time the Midway community had become an important regional hub for transportation, industry, commerce and education. Commercial development, short line railroad transportation and the growth of the streetcar system played key roles in the Midway area’s development.
