Also, not sure if you've known about this, there's two sirens at the southern part of Medicine Lake, one being a possible 2001-DC (I say possible because I have started to realize Hennepin is slowly replacing DC's) and an inactive STH-10. Both sirens are located behind the Medicine Lake City Hall.

Just remembered too, there was a 2001-DC at Fire Station 4 in northern Bloomington, that has since been replaced with a 2001-130 a little north of the original location. The DC was removed in Summer 2022 due to renovations at the Fire Station. 44.85275086999424, -93.33402917420476

Some people did not believe me when I said the Lanesboro screamer was removed, so I went looking for some proof, and this is all I could find.

Do testing locations count? If so, here's an image from when Minneapolis was testing the capabilities of a Chrysler-Bell Victory Siren on the Northwestern Bank in 1943:

Absolutely! I'll put the fact that it's a testing location in the pin description. Do you have a set of coordinates by chance?

(small bump, sorry)
After a bit of digging (sorry for getting to you so late, I haven't been on the board much recently), I found that the Northwestern Bank Building is actually currently the Wells Fargo Bank currently at 620 South Marquette Avenue. From this perspective, it looks like it was situated on the south side of the building.

I visited those sirens twice recently. The STH-10 was completely and totally unwired and it probably would still work if redone. I might ask if I could buy it

Here is a news interview that shows many shots of a Soundmaster 125. It was located in Plymouth, and it's now long gone (according to the video). I do not know where this was, unfortunately.

I'll look into it, I wouldn't have expected Plymouth to have Soundmasters, but I might be able to find it.
