US Bancorp Center

The US Bancorp Center is a 32-story office tower in downtown Minneapolis made of glass and steel, positioned at a key intersection where business districts meet. Its clean facade and modern construction make it a noticeable landmark in the city's skyline.

Construction started in 1998 under the design of architectural firm Ellerbe Becket and finished in 2000. The project was part of the downtown modernization wave that reshaped the city at that time.

The building reflects Minneapolis's standing as a major financial hub in the region and shows how corporate design has shaped the city's identity. You can see in its form the values of contemporary business and ambition.

The tower is located in the business district with good connections to public transportation and is easy to reach on foot from downtown. Best views of the exterior are from the street during daylight hours, as the interior is mainly for office workers.

The building was designed with advanced structural methods that create its distinctive presence in the skyline. These engineering innovations are not obvious from the outside but give the tower its memorable form.
