National Register of Historic Places - Brinkhaus Saloon Livery Barn (Auto Parts)
Statement of Significance: The Brinkhaus Saloon Livery Barn is significant as a rare and extremely well-preserved example of one of Chaska's vanished businesses. This structure is a significant element in Chaska's varied commercial streetscape This livery barn is reported to have been constructed shortly after Herman Brinkhaus built an adjoining hotel and saloon, the Minneapolis Hotel, in 1872. For many years the livery business was rented to James Dilley, a Civil War veteran and representative to the state legislature (1873 and 1876-77). Dilley not only quartered horses and rented rigs but provided "bus" service to various locations in Chaska and held mail contracts between Chaska and numerous Carver County communities. This structure is in an excellent state of preservation and fittingly provides a 20th century transportation need to Chaska residents.
