This construction site in Dinkytown, Minneapolis, sits on the former grounds of the Kurth Malting Company grain elevator. The elevator complex was demolished to clear land for a University of Minnesota athletic facility. Concrete silos from the adjacent Archer Daniels Midland elevator remain standing near the cleared parcel.
