- Theodore Roosevelt (allthetropes.org)
Theodore Roosevelt (also known as “Teddy” or “T.R.”) is known for having been in the cavalry, leading the Rough Riders’ charge on San Juan Hill, commissioning the Panama Canal, creating the US National Park System, and saying “speak softly, but carry a big stick” (the aircraft carrier USS Theodore Roosevelt is called “the big stick” by its crew). Before he became the 26th President of the United States, he was a governor, historian, adventurer, police chief, cavalryman, cowboy, explorer, hunter, naturalist, Assistant Secretary of the Navy, author of 35 books, conservationist, etc. He was a larger-than-life figure with a bombastic reputation as a total Badass.
- IDS Center (Wikipedia)
The IDS Center is an office skyscraper located at 80 South 8th Street in Minneapolis, Minnesota. Completed in 1973, it is the tallest building in Minneapolis, and the tallest building in the state at a height of 792 feet (241 m). It originally stood 775 feet 6 inches (236.37 m), though a 16-foot (4.9 m) garage for window washing equipment was added between 1978 and 1979. The structure rises to 910 feet (10,900 in) when including communications spires on the roof, indisputably the highest points in the city. The IDS was constructed as the headquarters of Investors Diversified Services, Inc.—now Ameriprise Financial. It also housed the headquarters of Dayton Hudson Corporation (now Target Corporation) from 1972 until 2001.
