Long before it became a sought-after event venue, The Moore House earned its place in television history.
The home's exterior served as the fictional residence where Mary Richards, played by Mary Tyler Moore, began her independent life in The Mary Tyler Moore Show. The opening credits, featuring Mary stepping out the front door on her way to work at WJM-TV, introduced millions of viewers to one of television's most recognizable homes.
For decades, fans have visited the property to experience a piece of television history while exploring one of Minneapolis's most charming neighborhoods.
