The staff at the Grant Street Inn, Bloomington’s historical 40-room bed and breakfast, still remembers when the late Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsberg stayed there. Each morning, she requested coffee and a bran muffin for breakfast.
The Grant Street Inn, which occupies an entire block of Grant Street, was once the historic Ziegler House, built in 1883 behind the First Presbyterian Church. It was purchased by Bill and Gayle Cook in 1991 and moved a block and a half to its current location at 310 N. Grant St. to prevent it from being torn down. Today, the inn is owned by CFC Properties, the real estate arm of Cook Group.
