Bob Dylan's Boyhood Home


The Zimmerman family called this colorful two-story, wood-framed 'Mediterranean Modern' house, a few blocks off of central E Howard St, home after moving here from Duluth in 1947. The house is closed to the public, but it is possible to take a discreet photo from the sidewalk (keeping in mind the house is privately owned and occupied).
