A few notes on buildings listed.

In Minneapolis:

The Carlyle is 469 ft/41 floors. This information comes directly from blueprints, and is revised down from 473 as originally published.

Two Twenty Two is 375 ft. This comes from the documentation submitted to the Minneapolis Planning Commission, which was approved. That rendering is the version that was approved, by Durrant Architects. They've since changed architects, but no rendering has been released

Eitel Hospital should be renamed. That elevation drawing is of the residential tower approved for 1368 LaSalle Avenue. The adjacent block contains the old hospital and is being renovated into apartments by the same developer.

In St. Paul:

The Penfield is 33 floors.

The Westin St. Paul is estimated around 364 ft. This comes from the Urban Areawide Review Mitigation Plan submitted in December 2004 to the State of Minnesota and City of St. Paul, and approved by the FAA (the site is moderately close to Holman Field, St. Paul's downtown airport, but not under a runway).


In Covington:

The Ascent at Roebling's Bridge in Covington is 293 ft. This comes from the project superintendent at Danis Building Company, the GC.
