Whether you're a long time resident or simply fascinated with the transformation of past to present, Elk Grove History Week is your invitation to slow down, look closer, and learn about how our community came to be.

The Buildings Behind the Businesses

Main Street Historic Elk Grove is more than a great night out, it's a living timeline. Many of the restaurants and shops we visit today are housed in buildings that have witnessed more than a century of Elk Grove history. Stay tuned and be sure to follow @MainStreetElkGrove for an inside look at the history behind places like Bob's Club, Prost Beer Hall, and Brick House!
