History

The square of land on the east side of the Rum River just south of Main Street has served as a gathering place for Anoka citizens since the town began in the mid-1800's. Known as Bridge Square, it was a place to share news, hear speeches and concerts, celebrate special occasions, or simply get together. The shelter at the site, though not in the original location, was built in the image of the old band shell that once stood a few hundred yards north of here.
