During your Minneapolis vacation, don't miss these great establishments and attractions:
Frederick R. Weisman Art Museum
The Weisman Art Museum on the University of Minnesota campus sits on a bluff overlooking the Mississippi River. You won't miss the trademark Frank Gehry-designed building, its metallic, fluid form gleaming in the sunlight. The building's architecture is probably the best part of the exhibit -- the permanent collection inside is rather small. Canvases by Warhol and Lichtenstein share gallery space with other American artists from the early 20th century. Allow 30 minutes to an hour.
Walker Art Center/Minneapolis Sculpture Garden
Shut for a year due to expansion work, the Walker Art Center will reopen in early 2005 with nearly twice its original space for exhibiting edgy, contemporary art: paintings, sculptures, drawings, photographs, and multimedia installations. The renovation will add a new restaurant, cafe, and gift shop. Across Vineland Place is the Minneapolis Sculpture Garden, the largest urban sculpture garden in the country. A variety of 20th-century sculpture shares space with horticultural plantings, including the famous "Spoonbridge and Cherry." Allow 2 hours for both.
Cathedral of St. Paul
Built in 1915 on the highest point in the city, this cathedral is one of the largest in the country. A replica of St. Peter's in Rome, the building boasts a newly restored 175-foot-high copper dome, a massive rose window, and granite-and-travertine construction. Allow 30 minutes.
Minneapolis Marriott City Center
Conveniently located in the heart of downtown, this facility adjoins the three-story City Center shopping mall and is within walking distance of the Target Center and much of the city's nightlife. The hotel caters to the convention crowds and the rooms are standard business hotel issue. The staff is friendly and attentive.
Best Western Kelly Inn
This older, plain facility is a good bet for families on a tight budget -- the affordable inn features basic but comfortable accommodations. All of the city's downtown attractions are less than a mile away and an indoor pool means there's always something fun to do, whatever the weather. Some rooms offer scenic views and some units have whirlpools.
Nicollet Island Inn
Just across from the Mississippi River, this lovely inn was once an 1893 window shade and blind company; it was converted into an inn in the 1970s. The individually decorated rooms are furnished with offbeat originality; all rooms offer VCRs and freshly baked cookies, and some have Jacuzzis. The Nicollet Island Inn Restaurant is highly recommended (as are reservations), featuring contemporary American cuisine and a selection of over 350 wines; it also serves an excellent Sunday brunch ($26 adult, $13 children ages 6-12, free for children 5 and under). Ask about weekend B&B packages.
