| Hines completes restoration of reflecting pools in Minneapolis The Minneapolis office of Hines, the international real estate firm, announced the completion of the restoration and reopening of the two reflecting pools at 20 Washington Square in downtown Minneapolis. The six-story 20 Washington Square office building, along with the two pools that run nearly a full-city block in front of it, were designed by Minoru Yamasaki, the notable architect whose work includes the twin towers of the World Trade Center in New York. Originally introduced to the Minneapolis CBD in 1964 when 20 Washington was completed, the pools remain the largest water feature in Minneapolis. write your comments about the article :: © 2009 Construction News :: home page |
