Minnesota Vietnam Veterans Memorial
The Minnesota Vietnam Veterans Memorial was designed to evoke a reflective mood rather than make a political statement. It was designed
to express honor and remembrance, while acknowledging valor and service, and affirming the need to grieve as well as to experience an earlier time of innocence before the war. It was designed also to remind us that the price of war is high: young men and women die, and others have their lives forever altered.
In February of 1992, James Steele Construction Company was awarded the contract to build the Memorial. To keep the bid low, supervisors and tradesmen volunteered to work nights and weekends on their own time. We broke ground in April of 1992 and worked all summer to create what you see today: a dream made real. James Steele Construction earned a special historical award for this project.
