About this event

Organized in Minneapolis in 1881, the Grain Exchange responded to Minnesota’s status in 1900 as the largest primary wheat market in the world by constructing the present Grain Exchange Building.  Influenced by Louis Sullivan’s large-scale commercial/office buildings, this edifice was one of the first buildings in Minneapolis to make use of the steel frame for its interior structural system.  Members will meet in the main lobby of the Grain Exchange where Joe Albrecht will discuss the history of the Grain Exchange, show the trading floor and present a video that describes the floor before it was converted to its current use as a business office.
