The last time Bloomington witnessed a turn of the century, Old Shakopee Road was little more than a one-lane dirt road. This is a view of Old Shakopee at the corner of Penn Avenue around 1900. Shown from left to right are Baillif General Store, the Grange Hall and Town Hall. Town Hall now houses the Bloomington Historical Society and is known as the Old Town Hall Museum.
