From Our Homes to Your Screen
Historic Concordia Home Tour 2020
In these Pandemic Times the idea of an in-person home tour seems… as quaintly historic as the homes we love and love to share with you. But we have the perfect solution — a virtual home tour!
You may already be familiar with our acclaimed home tour web app. This year we will nearly double the number of locations, including many critical properties like the Gustav Pabst mansion and the historic Concordia (now Potawatomi) Campus itself. More and expanded interior virtual tours and more historic photos will be added along with a video introduction to Concordia by renowned Milwaukee historian, John Gurda.
The HCNI Home Tour is the longest running neighborhood home tour in Wisconsin. This is our 30th year and we wondered how to make it unique. Funny how uniqueness was thrust upon us. But the result will be a really special experience for you. Return here on June 20th, or any day thereafter, to take your virtual journey through Historic Concordia.

This is a “web app,” really just a website with a few app-like features to make a mobile experience more enjoyable without downloading a separate app to your phone. It performs just as well on a plain old computer. But if you are exploring the neighborhood by foot or car this web app will be a remarkably useful asset.
Donations
The annual home tour is HCNI’s primary fund raising event of the year. Beyond funding the home tour itself, that money is critical for programs that further neighborhood development, outreach and cohesion. While we aren’t charging admission to the virtual tour, please consider a donation to help HCNI continue its mission. Thanks!
