Foshay Tower Museum

Once the tallest building in the Midwest, the Foshay Tower now stands as a landmark towering above the Twin Cities. Built as homage to the Washington Monument, plumbing magnate, Wilbur Foshay commissioned the building in 1929. It stood as the tallest tower for over 40 years, until the IDS Tower was built in 1973. However, the birds-eye view of the city from the 31st floor observation deck and museum is truly spectacular and a must visit.
