The Laurentian Vision: A New Legacy for Minnesota’s Mining RegionElmer L. Andersen Library Atrium Gallery

The Mesabi Iron Range possesses rich veins of iron ore, natural and community resources, and cultural histories. It also has historic and persistent cycles of economic prosperity and depression, cycles that characterize its regional personality as much as its communities and landscape.

This exhibit presents the decades-long work of the University’s Landscape Architecture Department to transform the Range’s mine lands into new lakes and landscapes as the foundation for a more diverse and resilient economic and community future.
