The Siebens Building is a 220-foot (67 m) high-rise in Rochester, Minnesota, United States. It is built where the William Worrall Mayo home had been, and the original Mayo Clinic building was built on the site in 1914.[1] The Siebens Building is operated by Mayo Clinic and is the center for educational activities and houses the Venables Health Science Library, classrooms and computer labs.[2] The building also holds some Mayo Clinic administrative offices and study areas. The 14th floor—referred to as the "Greenhouse" for its glass, pitched ceilings or greenhouse-like look—is home to Mayo Clinic Volunteer Office.
