8500 Tower

The 8500 Tower is an office building in Bloomington that rises 24 stories above the surrounding suburban landscape. The structure is part of a larger commercial complex that includes multiple connected buildings and parking facilities in the area.

The building was completed in 1988 and designed by the architectural firm Wilson/Jenkins Associates. The project became part of the developing office park landscape in the Minneapolis-St. Paul metropolitan region.

The building represents modern corporate architecture and forms part of a commercial district that shapes the business landscape of Bloomington.

The building sits at 8500 84th Street West and connects to nearby structures through climate-controlled passages. Ample parking spaces are available on the property, and a paved walking path circles the adjacent lake for those who want to explore the grounds.

The property includes a two-mile paved path encircling Normandale Lake, offering a place to walk apart from the office towers. The entire complex spans 27 acres with over 1.7 million square feet of office space distributed across multiple buildings.
