Saint Paul Municipal Elevator

It has been a while since I've captured the old Saint Paul Municipal Elevator. Actually, it's been a really long times since I've posted on my photo blog. I was bored, it felt like a chore, lost interest, no time. Take your pick, but it's a combination of all of those. 

Anyway, the last time I posted a photo of the tower, it was unpainted, falling apart, and looked like it should be torn down. Today it is restored, at least on the outside, and connects to the City House building. When we first were here, it was called the Red River Kitchen, but it is under new management and I would guess the name change. We love coming here for food, drinks and a walk along the Mississippi River and you would as well.

Clock Tower

On the corner of 98th Street and Lyndale Avenue in Bloomington. I've been to this location a few times in the past, but always during the daytime. I believe this was the first time I've seen the clock tower as the sun was setting.

LOTR: The Two Towers

Sorry to say, this is not the two towers from the Lord Of The Rings series. Instead, these two towers can be found on Harriot Island across the Mississippi River from downtown St Paul. This is a new addition to the park where summer concerts are held.
