What to Expect  

Investors from around the world are “flocking” to Rochester Minnesota. A new project called Destination Medical Center will transform Rochester and change the face of the city through a $68 billion investment. On this tour, we will learn about these new plans for Rochester and visit some historic locations. 

  • Plummer House, a 49-room mansion with many innovations built ahead of its time by Dr. Henry S Plummer.  
  • Assisi Heights convent and chapel; the structure is based on the Basilica of Saint Francis in Assisi Italy.  
  • Mayo Clinic campus and listen to its Carillon.  
  • Pill Hill National Historic District, a neighborhood of historic homes and pioneering doctors.
