Minneapolis, Minnesota

From 1880 to 1930, Minneapolis led the world in flour production with its many water-powered mills, earning it the nickname “Mill City.” Mill Ruins Park features the remains of many of these mills, as well as the railroad that led to them. Before the park could be opened to the public, however, its deteriorating masonry walls and railroad trestles needed to be stabilized and preserved.
