HRPS Tours
University of Nevada - Reno Historic District (Campus)

Visit Morrill Hall, MacKay School of Mines, the Keck Museum, and learn the history of this beautiful campus.

 
Wells Avenue Neighborhood

Take a stroll through a working class neighborhood along the path of the Wells Avenue streetcar, across the V&T tracks, and past the homes of the "Thoma Street Gang."

 
Upper Ralston-Northern Little Italy

Enjoy a walk in a residential neighborhood with a mix of architectural styles. Proximity to the University has traditionally determined the mix of residents, professors, and students alike.

 
Western Addition

Visit vestiges of one of Reno's earliest residential neighborhoods dating from the mid-1870s. Hear the stories of its early "movers and shakers," such as Fire Chief George Twaddle, businessman Frank Humphrey, and banker Charles Bender and view the varying architectural styles from the Carpenter Gothic Clifford House to the modest brick bungalows of the Smith-Petersen subdivision.
