• Basilica of St. Mary
  The Basilica of St. Mary was the very first basilica built in the United States, in Minneapolis, Minnesota, that was visited by Pope Pius XI in 1926, and is a co-cathedral of the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Saint Paul and Minneapolis. It is considered one of the best examples of beaux-arts architecture in the nation, built between 1907 and 1915, designed by the famous Franco-American architect, Emmanuel Louis Masqueray. It dominates the city block on Hennepin Avenue in downtown, and was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1975. The copper roof had to be replaced in 1991 to stop the leaking and water damage that resulted; and continuous restoration works goes on in the interior as well as the exterior. Beginning in 1995, the church has been holding an annual Basilica Block party weekend music festival, with the proceeds going to help restore the old church and help the poor families in the area. Each spring, DeLaSalle High School holds their commencement ceremonies there.

• John H. Stevens House Museum
  The John H. Stevens House was constructed in 1849 next to the St. Anthony Falls, and became the civic and social center of the new settlement, as well as being the site of numerous historical events. It was in this very house that the residents of the settlement came together to name the city and organize Hennepin County. It would begin the first agricultural society, the first singing school and the first school, as well as hosting marriages, church services, baptisms, territorial court for Federal judges, Chief Little Crow, Hole-in-the-day, Good Road and Shakopee would hold council here, city streets platted, transportation across the falls left here and the water power developed here. The judicial and court system began here, as did the school system, as well as being the first courthouse and school room. John was believed to be the Father of Minneapolis by peers, coming to the territory in 1849, as a farmer, editor, historian, merchant, state legislator, founder and first president of the state agricultural society. John was born in 1820, and served in the army during the Mexican war before heading to the territory, and in 1850, would marry Francis Helen Miller, and have six children. He would call her the Mother of Minneapolis because she supported him so well and his goals. John passed away in 1900 in Minneapolis. The house has a great number of photographs and other relics from the beginning of Minneapolis, as well as the lives of the Stevens family. You will see many photos of a single house sitting in the midst of teepees, then a bunch of houses sitting together which would become the city of Minneapolis. The table, clock, desk and surveying equipment that was used in the development of the city, plus many pictures of the main pioneers and Native Americans, including one of Hole-in-the-Day.

• Frederick R. Weisman Art Museum
  The Frederick R. Weisman Art Museum sits on the campus of the University of Minnesota Twin Cities in Minneapolis, Minnesota and has been teaching museum since 1934, and the present structure was designed by architect Frank Gehry, and finished in 1993. The unique stainless steel skin structure was fabricated by the A. Zahner Company, who has collaborated with Gehry many times in the past. It is one of the most prominent landmarks on the campus, sitting on a bluff, looking out over the Mississippi River on the east side of the Washington Avenue Bridge. It affords two faces, depending on the side you are looking at, and at the campus side, it has a brick facade that complements that existing brick and sandstone structures, while on the other opposite side, it becomes a playground of angular and curving brushed steel sheets, which is actually an abstract of a fish and waterfall. The most spectacular views are seen from the Washington Avenue Bridge, on the pedestrian and highway decks, while some critics have said that the reflection from the steel might be shown into the eyes of motorists and cause problems. The MNDOT made a study of that problem and found that it wasn't so. More often called a museum of modern art, the museum houses more than 20,000 images with large holdings in the Native American Mimbres culture pottery, Korean furniture, Marsden Hartley, Charles Biederman and Alfred Maurer. In 2009, a new addition was added and designed by Gehry, although finishing touches won't be completed until 2010. The museum was named after Frederick R. Weisman, a native of the city, who became a well known art collector in Los Angeles, and after his passing in 1994, another museum of art opened on the Pepperdine University in Malibu, California.  Other artists included in the collection include; Roy Lichtenstein, Georgia O'Keefe, James Rosenquist, and Jacob Lawence. There is a marvelous ceramics collection, with more than 2000 pieces, from around the world and through the ages.
