Handicraft Guild Building
- Handicraft Guild Building
The Handicraft Guild Building is located at 89 10th Street South, Minneapolis, Minnesota. It was designed in 1907 by architect William Channing Whitney in the Georgian Revival/Arts & Crafts style to house The Handicraft Guild.
It was protected in 1998 by the Minneapolis Heritage Preservation Commission despite attempts by condominium developers to tear the building down. The building is currently a low-rent building, popular with artists, in downtown Minneapolis flanked by Target Corporation's Headquarters and the AT&T Tower.
The building is in disrepair but early 1900s Arts and Crafts movement tile work can be found in suites throughout the building. Original Ralph Steadman artwork hangs in "Hell's Kitchen", a restaurant on the first floor.
