One of the most original & creative take by fusing architecture with fashion to tell a story. I was captivated & mesmerized with this work of art. 😍

Cast-Irons Stairs — The New York Life Insurance CO.'s Building, Minneapolis, MN.

The suspended, double-helix masterpiece that rose inside the lobby of the former New York Life Insurance Building in Minneapolis was so much more than a staircase— it was an architectural work of art!

Designed by the architectural firm of Babb, Cook & Willard, this might be the finest lobby we've ever laid eyes, past or present.
