In 2016 Kraus-Anderson completed work on Building 280 of 3M’s Maplewood campus. The unassuming name was so at odds with the building’s significance that it was soon also known as the Carlton Science Center, in honor of Richard P Carlton, 3M’s “architect of innovation.” This project is notable not only for its scale and scope (nearly half-a-million square feet, much of it high-tech labs), but of the building’s importance to 3M and to the region. Building 280 is designed to facilitate the work of around 700 scientists and engineers. It is the R&D center for a multinational company for which R&D is essential to its growth. Although the administrative tower (seasonally lit up like a Christmas tree) is more visible from I94, Building 280 is meant to be the architectural soul of the 3M campus. As Inge Thulin (then the company’s CEO) stated during the building’s opening ceremony: “Research and development is the heartbeat of 3M.” Of the 60,000 products that 3M makes, more than 1,000 are intended for the construction industry, so 3M was probably going easy on Kraus-Anderson when they chose to showcase about one hundred of their products within Building 280, but it was enough for a Pioneer Press reporter to claim that “the building itself is a 3M product.” Well, it is certainly a 3M building, and KA is proud to have contributed to the project.

Kraus-Anderson recently began an extensive renovation of Hidden River Middle School in St. Paul’s Mac Groveland neighborhood. Coming at its hundredth birthday, this school’s physical transformation coincides with an institutional change: Formerly named after Alexander Ramsey, the school board approved the updated moniker in 2022. It is an inspiring twist for mechanical contractors that the new name ties so closely with the building’s heating and cooling system. After a century of operating without AC, Hidden River is getting a state-of-the-art geothermal system that draws directly from the aquafer for which the school is named. Hidden River was first named after renowned educator Maria Sanford. It is unknown (to this archivist) why the school board opted to change the name to Ramsey, but Minneapolis public schools renamed one of its schools Ramsey Junior High around the same time. That school became Justice Page Middle School in 2017. Sticking with Maria Sanford would have been a safer bet: Minneapolis’s Sanford Middle School is still, in shortened form, named in her honor. In fact, although perhaps not a household name, Maria Sanford is one of the most honored people in Minnesota’s history, as she occupies one of Minnesota’s two slots on the National Statuary Hall. The students of Hidden River will attend their 2024-2025 classes at a temporary location while the fifty-million-dollar transformation is taking place.

Kraus-Anderson’s Fargo office recently moved into the Historic Union building. As the name suggests, KA once again chose a location that resonates with the history of its community. The Historic Union is really a combination of two buildings: The Union Storage and Transfer Company’s warehouse is an art deco box attached to the more horizontal Armour Creameries building. The whole complex has been deemed sufficiently integral to the history of Fargo and its hinterland to be listed on the National Register of Historical Places. Named for William Fargo, a director of the Northern Pacific Railroad, and located where NP surveyors decided to site a railroad bridge across the Red River, Fargo’s origin and early history is very closely tied to rail transportation. As such, Fargo was known as the gateway to the west. As the first refrigerated warehouse in the region, the Union Storage and Transfer warehouse was an important link in the transportation network that brought the agricultural products of Fargo’s vast hinterland to the world. The Armour Creameries part of the building played a similar role in Fargo’s history. It also contributed to Fargo’s historic pink collar economy, and a noteworthy demographic trend in the city’s history: Women far outnumbered men in late 19th and early 20th century Fargo. This was true, to a lesser extent, in cities across the northwest as young women were slightly more likely than young men to seek opportunities beyond the family farm. In certain cities, Fargo for instance, a feedback loop was created when businesses like Armour took advantage of the lesser-paid female workforce to create pink collar jobs that drew yet more female workers into the city. Pictured here are women sorting eggs at Armour Creameries. Kraus-Anderson’s move into the Historic Union is the culmination of a decade-long redevelopment effort.

For decades, beginning in the 1960s, Kraus-Anderson was a go-to contractor for Pitney Bowes, fulfilling all the iconic business’s construction needs throughout the Midwest. In the early 1900s, Arthur Pitney developed and patented a machine that automatically applied postage to letters. The crucial aspect of Pitney’s “postal machine” was that it printed postage, rather than applying it with an adhesive stamp. It is somewhat difficult to appreciate from the 21st century, but a century ago, theft of postal stamps was a serious concern for the Post Office and the US government. Large heists of postal stamps were undertaken by ambitious and organized criminals. Pitney’s machine addressed this issue while making large-scale mailings feasible (even routine) for US businesses. In the meantime, Walter Bowes, more of a promoter than an inventor, was successfully marketing a postal cancelation machine – a useful but less ambitious technology that automated the defacing of postage stamps to prevent their reuse. In the 1920s, when postal regulations turned favorably toward automated postage, the two enterprises merged, forming Pitney Bowes. Today, more than a century later, Pitney Bowes is a remarkably tenacious presence in the US business world. Now calling itself a software and financial services company (both market segments grew from, and still connect to, its core postage/shipping business), Pitney Bowes now relies less on brick-and-mortar locations. Even though most (or all) the facilities Kraus-Anderson built for Pitney Bowes are gone or put to other uses, KA is proud to share some history with this iconic American business. TBT
