Description
The Soo Line Building was, at 19 stories, the tallest building in Minneapolis from its completion in 1919 until the Foshay Tower surpasssed it in 1929. Originally built for the First National Bank of Minneapolis, it later became the headquarters of the Soo Line Corporation. ("Soo" was a phonetically spelled reference to the Minneapolis and Sault St. Marie Railroad.) Today it's a luxury apartment building. This skyway crosses 5th Street and connects to the 5th Street Towers building, seen at the top of the photo.
