Pictures by F. Pezolt
Minnehaha Falls pours white water past blazing red and gold autumn leaves and a rustic log bridge in this photochrom from around 1900, with an 1891 bird's-eye view of Minneapolis inside. Longfellow made these falls famous in The Song of Hiawatha, though he never saw them himself. For someone who loves Minneapolis or misses it.
