"Robert Street Boardwalk" by Edgar Herrera

West St. Paul Print Now Available

Last month we commissioned a work of art by local artist Edgar Herrera to celebrate hitting 50 ongoing supporters. That piece is still available as a thank you postcard to supporters through Patreon, but it’s also now available as an 8.5 x 11 framed print in our Etsy shop.

The black and white illustration, “Robert Street Boardwalk,” features a number of local businesses and attractions in West St. Paul, including the water tower, the dome, and more (plus some hidden surprises). Local West St. Paul artist Edgar Herrera created the illustration.
