Sliced in half by the construction of I-279 in the 1980s, Deutschtown has been rebuilding and reinventing itself for three decades. The 2011 self-guided Deutschtown Historic House Tour spotlights the momentum of this neighborhood’s decades-long revitalization efforts. It features the most recently restored and distinctive homes, many built in the late 1800s, and some modern surprises. Featuring a diverse array of interiors, architecture and styles in 7 homes (and 5 gardens), the tour also offers ethnic music and diverse cuisine from local restaurants. (courtesy Randy Strothman)
