The Lakewood Cemetery Garden Mausoleum, completed in 2012 and designed by Joan Soranno and John Cook of HGA Architects, represents a modern counterpart to Lakewood’s historic chapel. Built into the natural slope of the cemetery grounds, the structure uses gray granite and white mosaic marble to evoke quiet reflection and permanence. Its minimalist form and interplay of light were conceived to harmonize with the surrounding landscape of Lake Calhoun (Bde Maka Ska). The mausoleum extends Lakewood’s 150-year tradition of blending architecture, art, and remembrance within a park-like setting in south Minneapolis.
