He designed many grand private residences, but also designed or assisted in the design of many of Adelaide's grand public buildings. Whilst in partnership with Edward John Woods, he designed the original Venetian Gothic building of the University of Adelaide, considered his greatest work.McMinn married Mary Francis Muirhead at Glenelg in 1877, with whom he had two daughters.
