Description
The Rand Tower, at 26 stories, was one of the tallest buildings in Minneapolis when built in 1929. The stock market crashed, but the building stayed up, and today it's slated to become a luxury hotel. Its design contains Art Deco elements but is officially listed as Moderne. Some of the ornamentation has an aviation theme; the figures over the entrance represent Mercury and are holding biplanes.
