International Plaza, High-rise office building in Bloomington, United States
International Plaza is a high-rise office building in Bloomington with 11 floors and a glass-and-aluminum exterior at the intersection of I-494 and 34th Avenue. The structure spans about 280,000 square feet with a concrete frame supporting the floors above.
The complex was completed in 1985, marking an important addition to Bloomington's business district during a period of suburban office growth. The project helped establish modern commercial development standards in the area.
The interior features minimalist design with birch tree graphics on the atrium wall, creating a subtle reference to Minnesota's forests within an office setting. These details help workers feel connected to the region's natural character even while inside a modern building.
The building provides 916 covered parking spaces and free 24-hour airport shuttle service for convenience. It sits just one block from the Metro Transit Blue Line station, making public transportation easily accessible.
The building uses a decentralized climate control system with individual heat pumps for different sections. This allows each tenant or department to regulate temperature independently, which helps save energy.
