Lyndale Avenue Fire Ruins from Above

An aerial view shows the charred remains of a vacant apartment building on Lyndale Avenue in Minneapolis the morning after a fire swept through the structure. Snow outlines the building’s footprint and surrounding rooftops, contrasting sharply with the blackened debris and collapsed interior walls. Frozen trees, scorched timbers, and scattered structural fragments highlight both the intensity of the blaze and the rapid onset of winter conditions that followed.
