The Peavey–Haglin Experimental Concrete Grain Elevator is the world's first known cylindrical concrete grain elevator. It was built from 1899 to 1900 in St. Louis Park, Minnesota, United States, as an experiment to prove the design was viable. It was an improvement on wooden elevators that were continually at risk for catching fire or even exploding. Its cylindrical concrete design became the industry standard in the United States, revolutionizing grain storage practices. After its initial experiments, the Peavey–Haglin Elevator was never again used to store grain. Since the late 1960s it has been maintained on the grounds of the Nordic Ware company and is painted with their name and logo.

  • Der Peavey-Haglin Experimental Concrete Grain Elevator ist ein 1899–1900 errichteter runder Silo aus Beton zur Lagerung von Getreide und war das erste Bauwerk dieser Art in den Vereinigten Staaten und möglicherweise weltweit. Er ist bemerkenswert, weil er die Verwendungsmöglichkeit von Beton bei der Konstruktion von Getreidesilos bewiesen hat. Zuvor waren diese aus Holz gebaut und waren deshalb kostenintensiv und feueranfällig. Er steht in St. Louis Park in der Nähe der Kreuzung von und an einer früheren Bahnlinie der . (de)
