FARGO, N.D. — It is one of the most reproduced photos in American history: 11 construction workers seated on a beam more than 65 stories above the Manhattan skyline. And now, Fargo has its own version.<br />
<br />
Kilbourne Group and Roseville-based McGough Construction asked Fargo photographer Dan Francis to re-create the famous “Lunch atop a Skyscraper” photo from 1932 with “Lunch atop Block 9,” taken May 14 on Fargo’s newest soon-to-be high-rise.<br />
<br />
Block 9 will include headquarters for hundreds of team members of R.D. Offutt Co., retail on the ground floor, a boutique hotel, a restaurant and residential condominiums.<br />
<br />
The building, now under construction on Broadway and Second Avenue North, will only be 18 stories tall, but Francis says it’s the perfect time to capture a good background image of downtown Fargo from the Block 9 site.<br />
<br />
According to Adrienne Olson with the Kilbourne Group, the original idea came from Russ Klein, the McGough superintendent on the Block 9 project who likes the classic photo and always thinks of it when he sees structural steel erected on a project site.<br />
<br />
“He called us and asked if we’d want to try to get a cool picture if he lined up the craftspeople on the steel beam,” Olson says. “We instantly fell in love with the idea.”<br />
<br />
That meant when the time was right, Francis and his camera were going for a climb.<br />
<br />
“I was brought up by the construction crew from their offices. We walked up to the fifth story, but realized that it would be over most of the downtown buildings, so we actually went down another story as it had the best background,” Francis says. “For this image to work and to represent downtown Fargo, we of course wanted to show off the iconic Fargo Theatre sign and the buildings and churches in the background.”<br />
