The walk starts at St. Joseph Museum. We parked on the street at the back. These neat old homes were across the street. |
This is not the main entrance where you go in to register, but it is prettier. |
|
Nice corner tower. |
There are lots of beautiful old homes on this walk. |

This house was on the map, but not on the walk route. We drove over after finishing the walk. Here is where Jesse James was shot and killed by his cousin Bob Ford on April 3, 1882. |
