Lumen Technologies Building, Art Deco skyscraper in Minneapolis, United States
The Lumen Technologies Building rises 26 floors above Minneapolis with strong vertical lines and geometric patterns adorning its limestone and granite exterior.
Built in 1932 during the Great Depression, this structure incorporated steel frames from a previous Northwestern Bell building that stood at the same location.
The building displays electrical bolt designs and a stylized bird above its entrance, reflecting the technological progress of the telecommunications industry in the 1930s.
Located in central Minneapolis at coordinates 44.9775° N and -93.266667° W, the building maintains modern office spaces while preserving its historical architecture.
Three basement levels house original power systems and cable vaults, while the first floor served as a public area for telephone customers.
