Foshay Tower: 92 Years Of Skyline Views In Downtown Minneapolis Began In Infamy

For 40 years it was the tallest building in Minneapolis and over the decades, much has changed at the Foshay Tower.

I’ve always found the backstory of Foshay - the man and the building - fascinating. Thanks for covering! It’s a good reminder to visit the observation deck (on a warm day next year).

Is the machine shop still in the basement. It was nearly impossible to find parking when I worked in the basement.

Is it still open despite pandemic?

The W hotel is in it?

I'm quite sure the Foshay Tower doesn't approve of modern day Minneapolis. It likely wants to move to Florida or Texas.
