A cyclist rides past a boarded Walgreens storefront on Hennepin Avenue in Uptown Minneapolis on June 1, 2020. Plywood covers the windows and doors, with graffiti reading “EMPTY + BURNED” painted across several panels. The boarding was installed after unrest in Minneapolis following the killing of George Floyd on May 25, 2020, leaving commercial corridors such as Uptown marked by temporary security measures and damage.
