AC Hotel Minneapolis Downtown, boarded for curfew

The AC Hotel Minneapolis Downtown stands with its ground-level windows and entrance boarded with plywood. This measure was taken in anticipation of a 10 PM curfew, implemented in response to widespread protests and unrest following the May 25, 2020 death of George Floyd. Businesses across Minneapolis, including hotels like the AC Hotel, secured their properties during this period of civil unrest. The boarding reflects the immediate preparations made by establishments in the city's downtown core during a significant moment in Minneapolis's recent history.
