The Edina Mill, which gave the city its name
Edina, Minnesota

One of six gristmills built on Minnehaha Creek in Hennepin County between 1855 and 1876, this one opened as Waterville Mills. A Scottish miller named Andrew Craik bought it in 1869 and renamed it after Edinburgh, and the settlement around it took the name too. Low water on the creek ended commercial milling by the 1890s, the building came down in 1932, and marked foundations are all that is left.
That was 1 of the hidden places.
