Valley View Apartments (also known as Tornado Towers) was a block of buildings in Mankato, Minnesota, United States, constructed by placing mobile homes in a concrete frame, stacked four high.[1]
The building was erected in the 1970s, and demolished in 1995.
The buildings were widely condemned as ugly, and were eventually bought by the city for $160,000 and demolished.[2] They were replaced with more conventional apartments, of the same name.[3]
