Description
There is a distinct lack of buildings from Minneapolis, especially older buildings. This will be a collection of buildings that put Minneapolis on the map as a leader in industry. From the Minneapolis City Hall, the Basilica of Saint Mary, the Lumber Exchange, Foshay Tower, and all of the rest that are either demolished or still standing. Buildings built after 1940 will not be added to this collection.
