Aspen Street appears, unlabeled, in the 1872 Hopkins atlas, in a parcel of land labeled "Baum Estate."[1] The annual report of the Survey Committee of City Councils made on December 28, 1874, listed, under the heading "Levels Run and Profiles Made," "Aloe street, from Mathilda street to Aspen street."[2] The name Aspen Street was officially established by a city ordinance in 1881.[3] The 1882 Hopkins atlas shows Aspen Street in a plan of lots labeled "Rebecca Baum, Heirs."[4]
