Churchill Apartments, Residential tower in downtown Minneapolis, United States.
The Churchill Apartments is a residential tower in downtown Minneapolis featuring a glass and concrete exterior that rises 33 stories. The building's clean lines and reflective surfaces create a distinctive visual presence along the skyline.
Architects John Black and the firm Dubin, Dubin, Black & Moutoussamy designed this building, which was completed in 1981 by McColl-Tribco. Its completion marked a significant period of downtown residential development as Minneapolis transformed its city center.
The building represents a moment when Minneapolis embraced glass-and-concrete modernism to define its downtown character. It stands as a visible reminder of how the city shaped its identity through contemporary design choices in that era.
The tower is accessible by public transportation and walkable from downtown attractions, shops, and restaurants. Note that this is a residential building, so interior access is not available for casual visitors.
The building's interior apartments served as filming locations for scenes in the 2011 film 'Young Adult'. This Hollywood connection gives the tower a footnote in popular culture that many passersby never notice.
