Built as a tribute to the Washington Monument, the Art Deco Foshay Tower was completed in 1929, a dream of multimillionaire real estate developer Wilbur B. Foshay. Though Forshay's fortune was soon lost in the stock market crash, his legacy lives on in his lavish, 447-foot skyscraper, featuring African mahogany, Italian marble, gold-plated doorknobs, and an ornate, silver and gold ceiling in its interior. The building is located in downtown Minneapolis, just a block from the Wells Fargo History Museum.
