This section contains pictures of
the Minneapolis campus of the University of Minnesota,
which was founded in 1851 by territorial legislature(even
before the state of Minnesota was created).
This campus is divided by the Mississippi River
into east and west banks, which are joined by a
pedestrian walkway on top of the Washington
Avenue Bridge.
The east bank is filled with old, attractive
stone buildings. The newer west bank has
60s and 70s era facilities, like the Wilson Library,
Rarig Center, and law building.
The campus has continued to grow. Recent additions
including a cutting-edge basic sciences research building,
and the stainless-steel covered Weisman Art Museum(on
the river's east bank near the Washington Avenue Bridge).
The most recent addition is probably the
The McNamara Alumni Center/University of Minnesota Gateway
building, located where Memorial Stadium used to be
at Oak and University. It's unique appearance resembles
a giant stealth-fighter cockpit.
The U has one of the largest campuses in the U.S.,
and is an important part of southeast
Minneapolis and the state.
