The Minnesota Boat Club Boathouse on Raspberry Island is a historic structure in Saint Paul, Minnesota, United States. It is the home of the Minnesota Boat Club, a rowing club founded in 1870, that is Minnesota's oldest athletic organization. In 1885, a wooden structure was built on Raspberry Island to house the Minnesota Boat Club.[1] The club constructed a new boathouse in 1910, which was designed by George H. Carsley in the style of Mission Revival architecture. The boathouse building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1982.[2] [3]
