Description

St. Paul, Minnesota

October 9, 2016

The cathedral is on the left. Downtown St. Paul is to the right of that. The Schmidt brewery is just right of center. The 3M building is in the distance on the right. Does anyone know what the building on the far right is?

The Highland Park Water Tower is a water tower in the Highland Park area of Saint Paul, Minnesota. It was designed by Clarence W. Wigington, the nation's first African-American municipal architect. The tower was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1986. The hexagonally-shaped tower, on the second-highest point in Saint Paul, is constructed of brick and cut stone. It is 134 feet high and holds 200,000 gallons of water in a steel tank. It is topped with an observation deck, which is open to the public twice a year in July and October. (Source: Wikipedia)

This is a composite of multiple photos. Much more detail can be seen in the full size 28MB image. Some Photoshop hokery pokery has been used to remove a bright blue modern water tower intruding on the frame.
