Today-I-Learned that that Tangletown water tower, now empty, was a high point in the city's history, there in the neighborhood formerly known as Fuller.

'In 1932, south Minneapolis was facing water-pressure woes. The city tasked [architect Harry Wild] Jones and another local resident, sculptor John Daniels, with designing the Washburn Water Tower.

'Daniels was famous at the time for his stone and metal works as well as his butter sculptures at the Minnesota State Fair. He designed and created eight plaster casts of 16-foot-tall sword-wielding figures called guardians of health.

'As the tower rose, the Minneapolis Journal wrote about the dramatic figures that “romance is being put into the water business.”'

In an 1886 map of newly platted Washburn Park, real estate agents H.E. Ladd & Co. marketed the development as a retreat:

“No city in the country of the size and importance of Minneapolis is as destitute of fine suburbs; places where the men of business can get away from the noise of the city and the inconvenience of small lots and crowded neighborhoods,” the map’s accompanying text reads.
