#A IDS Tower and Crystal Court. Philip Johnson’s iconic 1972 glass and steel tower is Minnesota’s tallest building. Its multi-story glass atrium, the Crystal Court, was the setting for performance artist Suzanne Lacey’s Crystal Quilt project in 1987, and is a great place to grab an early morning coffee and pastry. As an added bonus, we’ll pay homage to the nearby life-sized statue of Mary Tyler Moore tossing her beret!
