Rooftop at Hewing Hotel

This is just the second summer the roof of the hip Hewing has been open to the public, and, six stories above the North Loop, it’s easy to understand the appeal. In addition to providing a great vantage point from which to see Minneapolis, the Hewing rooftop also has a pool for the  summer and a sauna for the winter. While only registered hotel guests can use the pool, anyone can stop up for a highball or cocktail Thursday - Saturday. If you want a bite after a few old fashioneds the hotel’s first-floor restaurant, Tullibee, has bar snacks and sandwiches.
