H&M Store Boarded Up on Hennepin Ave, Minneapolis

The H&M store on Hennepin Avenue in Minneapolis was boarded up in anticipation of potential unrest following the murder trial of Derek Chauvin. This measure was taken to protect property during a period of heightened public tension and protests. The "We're still open" sign indicates the store's intention to continue operations despite the surrounding circumstances, highlighting the complex interplay between commerce and social events in the urban environment.
