tripadvisorThe Siebens Building is home to the Transparent Man which is on Roadsideamerica.com's list for the Rochester area. The statue is inside the building. You must enter the building and go down to the subway level where you will find some shops, offices and waiting areas. There is some parking near the building but very limited since it is in one of the busiest parts of the Rochester Clinic. It is free to enter the building, and you can see the statue without an additional fee. It is also close to a Rodin statue and other displayed art. You can access restrooms in the building. There is an informational sign near the statue that gives more information about it and its history.
MoreBe sure to visit the Iconic Transparent Man on the Subway level at the Barbara Woodward Lips Patient Education Center. This is a great place to learn more about the human body and the different conditions that may inflict us.
MoreMost people don't go to Mayo Clinic for the art work, but there is a great collection. One piece not to be missed is Rodin's Jean D'Aire in the subway level of the Siebens building. I suspect hundreds of people walk within a few steps of it without ever seeing it. As you walk from the Gonda Building to the Marriott, there is a hallway to the right just past the visitor cafeteria. A few steps down this hallway take you to the sculpture. Be sure to read the explanatory note next to it.
MoreSiebens is a great building. Huge atrium with grand piano and hall of benefactors are in the subway, large meeting room on first floor, heavily used auditorium on the 2nd floor, many meeting rooms/break out rooms, then floors for various administrative functions (this is not a building where Mayo patients are seen for clinical purposes). If you are indeed lucky, you can get to the floor above the top floor where there is an awesome greenhouse and amazing views of Rochester (you'll see this in building photographs but access to that space is quite limited).
