Very cool, looks like something out of a movie. Took the kids there and the were absolutely amazed. Definitely worth driving by if youre in the area.
A beautiful landmark. There is a flight of steps leading up to the platform on which the tower is built. Great views in all directions.
This strangely was one of my favorite little spots in a of Minneapolis. I wish all water towers were made as beautifully and creatively as this is. This is tucked into a cute little neighborhood and is completely not what you expect to find in such an area. Its very peaceful and serene.
Go there and find out for yourself, you wont be disappointed!
Out of the way meeting place. Observe protocol
Best time to visit is at night. Love this gem.
Never knew this existed. On my “to go see” list now.Somehow I don’t think it’s a “cute” nor “little” water tower judging by the great pictures (some of which were posted by aforementioned reviewers that called it “cute” and “little”)
Big ol stone Johnson
Great place to sled directly into traffic
Pretty cool looking place. In a veryyyy nice neighborhood. On top of a hugeeee hill. Planes rake-off very near by. Really just a beautiful view and nice to look at.
A beautiful art deco water tower. I would like to see better maintenance. Its a great hill to run up and get a few stairs in.
Cool place to sit and meditate while watching the creek flow past you!
Great spot for Sunrise and sunsets at different times of the year. And it is a cool water tower, but not much else to see or do. Great place to test out various camera apps and features, which is what I did.
Located in a quite residential neighbourhood, this old water tower has knight sculptures holding swords around the base, and eagle statues at the top. There are several paths leading up to the tower and benches around. A quick stop to learn about an old water tower that is still used for water pressure today.
This is one of Minneapolis treasures. A sight you wont believe and now on the national historical register.
Best water tower ever
10/10 fun place to get lost and drive around in
Beautiful piece of art and history. Very happy to be living in such a beautiful, history rich neighborhood!
Coolest watertower in the twin cities
We have two snow removal accounts across the street from the tower. And we also painted one of the houses. The one with the turquoise trim. And we stained the deck at the other one. Great neighborhood.
Neat place to go for a walk. Pretty views and Delta Planes crossing. :)
Great place to watch planes fly over
Impressive, worth a visit, especially in the summer.
Great landmark, and a lot of steps for training. Nice place for a hilltop picnic!
Gorgeous water tower. A must see for residents of Minneapolis looking to get out and see the hidden secrets of their city. The architecture of this landmark can only be understood by standing beneath it and taking in all its beauty has to offer.
I have admired this neighborhood landmark since my childhood. Early one morning in the 1950s an airplane (which had clipped the tower) mysteriously crashed on the south side of Minnehaha Blvd. Without noticeable damage to the tower it took a long time to find the missing airplane parts, which were in landscaping around the tower and explained the crash. The tower is clearly marked as a hazard in 1950s era aviation maps.
Creepy as hell, got sacrificed at night would not recommend
A really cool historical site!
Chill spot but slightly sus
Awesome historical sight in mpls mn
One of my favorite parks, it has one of the best views in Minneapolis.
Pretty interesting water tower on the hill even when its -15 F outside!
Great place to get away from the city in the middle of the city.
Great 1930s design in a nice neighborhood
Cool. I like the hill.
Brings me back to the high school years.
Cool place
A hidden gem.
Great architecture, plan short visit.
