Hiawatha Avenue at Night, South Minneapolis

Looking down Hiawatha Avenue in the rain Minneapolis
Hiawatha Avenue, also known as Highway 55, is a major arterial road in South Minneapolis. This view looks north along the avenue at night in May 2022, with traffic illuminated by streetlights and the neon glow of businesses. The avenue serves as a primary transportation corridor, connecting the city's downtown to its southern suburbs and the Minneapolis-Saint Paul International Airport. Its development reflects the growth of Minneapolis as a transportation hub throughout the 20th century.
