Not enough time to take the full 2.5-mile tour? 1-hour Alternative
Start at the Brewery Arts Center, 449 W. King Street. After viewing the art gallery, follow the Blue Line north on Minnesota.
You’ll pass the Stewart-Nye, Edwards, Springmeyer, and Lee homes. Turn left on W. Telegraph, walk three blocks to Mountain St. and turn right. You’ll find the Robinson, Krebs-Peterson (site of John Wayne’s last movie, “The Shootist”), and Rickey
homes. At the corner of Mountain and Robinson, you’ll also see the Governor’s Mansion, the Bliss Mansion, and the Bender
house. Continue east on Robinson, passing the Stewart, Cavell, and Yerington homes. Turn left on Curry and cross the street to the Nevada State Museum—the former Mint. Complete your walk with a tour of the museum, if time allows.
For the return trip, follow Curry St. south to W. King St. Turn right (west) and follow 3 blocks to the Brewery Arts Center, where you began! There is plenty of free parking in the historic areas.
